Chapter 5.8
The male lead in front of him had a face full of naivety, whereas Mrs. Yuan’s expression beside him was very ugly. On the other hand, the balding Doctor Zhang and several nurses behind him breathed a gasp of cool air. Fan Yuan simply wanted to ask one question.
“What the f*ck, who is toying with me?!” (╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻
No one answered him, and the atmosphere in the ward became more silent and eerie.
The cogs in Fan Yuan’s mind began to turn quickly. According to the plot, the original host’s heart shouldn’t have moved for the male lead yet. At most, he probably felt only a little sympathy, so Fan Yuan didn’t need to worry too much. He could just treat Yuan Song as an ordinary patient. Facing the naive “confession” of an immature patient, he could just completely skip over the past and resolve the awkwardness at the same time.
Thinking about it this way, everything was actually very simple.........his ass!
He knew very well that the 20-year-old boy in front of him had already lived through a lifetime. The sunny big boy at the very beginning had long disappeared. At present, he already harboured. ill. intentions! Only God knew, he was most afraid to face these kinds of little white buns with black sesame stuffing!
Moreover, he understood very clearly that the incident today was just the beginning, more troubles would come hounding later on!
Fan Yuan went stiff for a moment before gradually returning to his senses. A helpless smile hung on his face as he shook his head, “You’re already twenty years old, yet you still say such childish things. So many people are looking, aren’t you afraid of them laughing.”
With that, he turned to Mrs. Yuan and said sincerely, “Yuan Song’s personality is very pure, just like a child. I like him very much.”
Such a manner of speaking was totally akin to that of an elder. It directly transformed Yuan Song’s previous words into that of a junior showing respect for an elder. They were both men, and they were eight or nine years apart, so it was quite reasonable and unsurprising to speak this way.
Mrs. Yuan hurriedly nodded, “Yes, this child has been straightforward ever since he was young. He can’t hide his good feelings for anyone, so his words can be quite exaggerated. I hope Doctor Shi doesn’t mind.”
Fan Yuan waved his hand with a smile, “He’s still small, it’s understandable.”
Yuan Song saw that Fan Yuan had misinterpreted the meaning of his words. Although his heart was unwilling, too many people were present, so he couldn’t overdo things to provoke Fan Yuan’s disgust, thus he had to endure it quietly.
Through his peripheral, Fan Yuan had been paying attention to Yuan Song’s movements, worried that he would spout even more shocking words that would result in an irreparable situation. Fortunately, the male lead still had some EQ and knew when to stop. It really scares people to death, okay?!
When Yuan Song’s mood calmed down, Fan Yuan discussed with Mrs. Yuan the compensation for various facilities in the ward. He received the compensation cheque and handed it to Dr. Zhang before excusing himself out of the room, leaving only the image of his elegant and cool back.
Several nurses whispered behind him, “As expected of our hospital’s male god, Doctor Shi. He’s handsome and good-natured, even when dealing with such a difficult patient, he solved the issue so effortlessly.”
“Yeah, not like Bald Zhang ah, when there’s a problem he’ll go looking for Doctor Shi. Tsk, tsk, the difference is truly too big.”
The “Bald Zhang” Doctor Zhang they were speaking of hadn’t gone far and heard their words clearly. At that moment, the cheque in his hand felt extremely heavy. The ugly one was him, was it? How can a person live in this face-con world?!
*******************
Fan Yuan didn’t know that his colleague’s grievances had broken through the sky. He returned to his office exhausted physically and mentally, with thoughts filled in his head. What should he do about the next part of the plot?
When Yuan Song had seen him just now, it had been just like a wolf seeing a meat bun. This could only be called raw ferocity. He had no worries about being pushed down by the frail male lead in a wheelchair, but looking at the current situation, he probably couldn’t follow the plot and happily go home to rest.
However, this wasn’t necessarily the case. After all, Yuan Cheng wasn’t the original version who had a brother complex. If he wanted to do things the hard way and make Yuan Cheng forcibly take him home, Yan Rui would definitely be very willing. As for Yuan Song’s opinion.........was that important?
＃Male lead, it’s all on you for not being obedient ah＃
＃It’s time to use a ‘imprisoning in a little black room’ play＃
＃Our slogan is: Fight evil with evil, fight violence with violence! ＃
Having figured out a solution, Fan Yuan felt relaxed as he pushed open the door to his office. That fellow Yan Rui was no longer there, how peculiar.
Fan Yuan stood still for a moment, before suddenly whipping around to look behind the door, okay——no one was hiding here.
After pacing for a few steps, Fan Yuan squatted down and looked under the table. En, very good, no one was here either. He turned his gaze to the bathroom.
Xiao Wu couldn’t stand watching any longer, “Ding, if Master is looking for Yan Rui, he isn’t within 100 meters.”
Fan Yuan’s mouth twitched as he leaned back on the seat without expression. Suddenly, he spotted a note underneath his water glass. He raised his eyebrows and picked it up, bringing it closer to his face for examination.
“I’m going to work, I’ll come pick you up later.”
Fan Yuan let out a snort. The guy still knew the concept of work? On second thought, there seemed to be a signing event for his new book this afternoon. He bent his lips and said, “Handwriting’s not bad.”
After that, he folded the note neatly and put it in his wallet.
When it was time to get off work, Yan Rui came to pick him up on time, but Fan Yuan refused to get in his car. As for the reason, of course, it was because they had done something shameful in that car! Just looking at that car made him embarrassed, OK!
Yan Rui naturally wouldn’t argue with him over such a small matter. Immediately, he locked his car and held Fan Yuan’s hand, moving over to get into Fan Yuan’s car.
After both of them had got into the car, he then smiled, “Yesterday, I cleaned the car after you fell asleep. If not, how could I drive it out?”
Fan Yuan’s face turned black, “Who cares if you cleaned it or not? I still won’t get in that car.”
Yan Rui started the car with a grin. As he drove the car out, he said languidly, “Apply some medicine when we get back. Do it yourself, I promise I won’t look.”
Fan Yuan looked out of the window, but his ears were a little red. Yet, his words were still stubborn, “I’m a man. I don’t need medicine for such a little wound.”
Yan Rui didn’t know what else to say. Yesterday, he truly did lose control, otherwise, Fan Yuan wouldn’t be hurt at all.
Now thinking back to that time, he still felt a little afraid. The Yan Rui that lost all reason and immersed in such animalistic desire was unspeakably foreign. It almost felt like a bloodthirsty and brutal side of him had been released. However, the little guy didn’t seem to realise anything, seducing him again and again. He was very worried that he would lose control and hurt him one day.
Fan Yuan didn’t know what Yan Rui was thinking about, but he could sense that his mood wasn’t as good as before. He pondered for a moment before saying, “Wanting me to apply medicine isn’t impossible.”
Just at the red light, Yan Rui pulled the brakes and looked over at Fan Yuan with interest, “What’s the condition?”
Fan Yuan counted with his fingers in all seriousness, “Scallion pancakes, crab roe shumai, Chongyang chestnut cake, braised five spice pig’s trotters, crispy multi-layer meat pie, and.........those are enough for the time being, I want you to personally make them for me. ”
Yan Rui listened carefully, and the more he listened, the more he felt things were off. Finally, he chuckled, “In the world where I was your brother, these are the foods I bought for you when we went on our first date. You remember them that clearly.”
A slight light flashed across Fan Yuan’s eyes. Actually, he didn’t really remember much anymore, he simply used Xiao Wu’s automatic recall function to search for the food, but of course he wouldn’t admit it, “I remember them because they were delicious. How’s this condition?”
Not to mention that he was willing to apply medicine in exchange, even if Fan Yuan had murmured softly that he wanted to eat those foods, he was more than happy to make them.
Seeing that the red light was lit, he suddenly leaned over and kissed Fan Yuan’s face. Quickly after, he released the brakes and pretended not to see Fan Yuan’s angry gaze. He said seriously, “Okay, I’ll learn them tonight.”
Seeing that he was in a good mood again, Fan Yuan turned to gaze out of the window at the rosy clouds, the corners of his mouth pulling up slightly.
*******************
Yuan Song pushed his wheelchair to the window which overlooked the hospital grounds.
His ward was on the 13th floor, and though it wasn’t considered very high up, it gave him a bird’s eye view of the scenery below.
He was very satisfied with this window‘s angle. He had been very satisfied ever since his previous life, because he could see that man go to work every day when he sat here. Although he couldn’t see his face clearly and could only see his silhouette vaguely, he was still satisfied.
He himself didn’t know when it started, when he developed these kinds of thoughts for Shi Yuan.
That man was mature and filled with charm. he could easily win over any woman as long as he wanted, but he just had to be so good to him. It almost seemed as if in Shi Yuan’s eyes, the only person he cared about was him, so he always showered him with an insurmountable amount of love and concern. It was hard for anyone to not be moved by such a man.
The unfortunate thing was that at that time, he couldn’t accept it—he was a professional tennis player, a talented tennis player who had been reported on all over domestic and foreign media, and his future had unlimited possibilities. Once he was labeled as gay, he thought he would ruin any possibility of a bright future if he did so. He would even have fingers pointed at him by others, becoming a street rat. He couldn’t bear the consequences.
At that time, he was only 20 years old, carrying a self-righteous dream. He naively assumed that he had made the most right and rational decision, but what he didn’t expect was that everything was simply a bubble of an illusion.
At the moment when Le Feng told him the truth, he actually didn’t feel that bad. In his heart, a very pleasant idea even sprouted, because God had helped him make a choice. God had mercilessly seized away his dream and sent Shi Yuan to him. This was fair, wasn’t it?
So what if he couldn’t stand up again? As long as that man could stay by his side for the rest of his life, he was willing to give it all up.
That night, he had drunk a lot of wine. He hadn’t drunk for a long time since the accident, but he really wanted to drink on that day as he finally decided that he would embark on the road of no return—he would come out of the closet, he would bravely face his sexuality, and he would chase Shi Yuan.
Le Feng thought that Yuan Song was drowning his sorrows away because of the condition of his legs, thus she tried her best to comfort him. Yuan Song thought it was very amusing, and told her that he wasn’t unhappy. He was going to pursue his happiness immediately, so he needed courage and hoped to receive her blessing.
Later that night, Le Feng accompanied him and drank together, and at last, when they were both drunk..........
After waking up, Le Feng had already become his person, and he wouldn’t be able to ever get rid of this responsibility.
Only then did he know that the girl that he thought of as a good friend and confidante had always fancied him. He couldn’t blame her. Between them, he couldn’t tell who was more miserable.
Yuan Song watched that familiar car leave slowly, thinking that God has given him another chance, God must have heard his pleas. This time, no one had to live in misery.
Mrs. Yuan was peeling an apple for him by the side as she nagged, “Ever since the operation finished, Yuan Cheng hasn’t ever come to visit you at the hospital. I’ve told you a long time ago, you treat him as your big brother, but he doesn’t really treat you as his little brother. You both aren’t born from the same mother, how can you both have the same intentions? In the past, you believed so strongly in him, but at least now, you can see his true colours.”
Yuan Song’s back bulged with blue veins, yet the corners of his lips still carried a faint wry smile, “Who said Yuan Cheng didn’t come to the hospital? He just didn’t come to see me.”
As he shut his eyes, the image of Yuan Cheng and Shi Yuan getting in a car together clearly presented itself in front of him. He suddenly opened his black eyes, and the area between his brows creased to reveal a sullen anger.
Yuan Cheng, in the previous life you came between us, forcing him to leave time and time again. This time, you want to snatch him away?
