Eternal Burning - Chapter 25

[Chapter 25 Where Is There Others in His Eyes?]

Yang Haiyang called me the next day to ask about my situation. After one night, he also thought that something was wrong. It’s not surprising that Shang Muxiao appeared in the restaurant, but what was surprising was that I was there.

I don’t lie very much, and I’m not good at lies, so I avoided the important and said lightly that I just learned that Shang Muxiao was going to obstruct his marriage proposal, so I followed him for fear of an accident. But what kind of “just right” is, I didn’t think about it, so I didn’t say it.

Yang Haiyang was obviously not satisfied with this ambiguous answer. He was thinking about what he wanted to say, but I interrupted him to ask him if his proposal was successful last night.

Yang Haiyang let out a long sigh, saying that he was disturbed by Shang Muxiao’s little bastard, so he could only discuss again, and Yunrou also hoped that he could see her father before the engagement.

After all, it’s a major event in life, it’s understandable to see the elders, but I don’t know what drastic actions Shang Muxiao will do at that time.

For a few days, Shang Muxiao never contacted me again, and all the text messages I sent were in vain.

I don’t know if this is the beginning of the cold war or the breakup. I am a little upset. I can still concentrate in class, but I am often distracted after class. Sometimes I can even stare at the computer for a long time.

I haven’t tasted the sweetness brought by love, but its sourness is unbearable for me.

It was only now that I began to admire Yang Haiyang and his courage to try again after experiencing a failed relationship. Of course, there is a reason for Shang Yunrou’s outstanding personal charm, but if Yang Haiyang’s heart was ashes, I’m afraid Shang Yunrou would not be able to ignite his embers no matter how passionate he is.

After all, anything in this world that requires two people to complete cannot escape from complementing each other.

“It’s been so cold recently, I can’t get up in the morning, I almost overslept today…” Yu Xixi walked beside me holding the handout and the teacup, and yawned as she spoke.

It is indeed getting colder and colder recently, and the plane trees on both sides of Wutong Avenue have become bald and look chilly. But fortunately, the accumulated leaves are finally cleaned up, and I can finally no longer need to be careful when my wheelchair passes over there.

“I remember you live in the school dormitory, so you can get up half an hour earlier to wash up and prepare.”

“Bei brother, do you have any misunderstanding about the preparation time of our girls?” Yu Xixi said, “I have to put on makeup. People for half an hour.”

This is really not understood. The only close young woman around me is Shen Luoyu, but she doesn’t wear makeup, she wears a plain face all the year round, and at most she changes her glasses.

“Ah, isn’t that Shang Muxiao? Oh my god, who is that beautiful girl beside him? Which celebrity’s daughter? She looks so beautiful.” Yu Xixi covered the lower half of her face with the handout, lowered her voice so that she could Gossip excitedly at a volume that only the two of us could hear.

Not far away, Shang Muxiao came head-on from the other side of Wutong Avenue, chatting and laughing with the girls around him as he walked, his eyes swept across my face in the middle, and he took it back as if nothing had happened, as if I was just an unimportant stranger. people.

Yu Xixi and I, he and the girl, intersected and staggered in this way, and continued to move in front of each other.

After walking five meters, I stopped my wheelchair. After all, I couldn’t turn a blind eye. I looked back at Shang Muxiao’s back. He turned his face sideways, with a smirk at the corner of his mouth, as if he was listening carefully to the people around him, and he matched the girl very well in both height and appearance. From a distance, it looks like a painting.

“Brother Bei?” Yu Xixi said nervously, “You are too blatant, you will be discovered!”

I retracted my gaze, drove the wheelchair again, and replied lightly, “No, there is no one else in his eyes.”

Humans are creatures with poor self-control. They know that vulgar desires will bring pain, but they still inevitably indulge in them. In the past, I thought that I had seen through the world, that I was free from greed, hatred, and ignorance, and that I was far from resentment.

There will be temptation, there will be desire, and there will be jealousy.

“Your leg muscles are in good condition. It seems that you have a good daily massage.” Through the thin physiotherapy clothes, the physiotherapist gently kneaded the muscles of my legs with fingers, feeling their elasticity one by one .

I lay on my back on the physiotherapy bed, closed my eyes and fell asleep, and said a simple “um”.

After a while, the physiotherapist didn’t give up and said again: “Are you really not going to try it anymore? Recently, we have a few recommended places, you can try the latest exoskeleton equipment developed by technology companies for free, it can help you better Restoring lower body strength. With it, you can stand up and even walk with simple assistive devices.”

It sounds tempting, but…

“No need.” I opened my eyes and refused for an unknown number of times. The other party said, “A set of exoskeletons would cost millions, I don’t have that much money.” I have

n’t paid off the house loan, and I still need daily expenses. I’m just an associate professor. Where can I buy an extra one million yuan? Such luxury?

The physiotherapist looked regretful: “Then why don’t you try rehabilitation again? I think there is still hope for you to stand up.”

I didn’t even want to shake my head and declined: “What’s the point of just standing up? I’m used to it. Sitting life, that’s good.”

I don’t have the courage of Yang Haiyang, and after I fail once, I won’t try again easily.

The physical therapist saw that I was resolute and stopped persuading me, but he still stuffed me a promotional flyer about exoskeletons before leaving, and he still didn’t seem to give up.

I knew he was kind, and he accepted it without saying anything, but never turned it over, and threw it in the drawer of the bedroom as it was when he got home.

Fast forward to December.

Since I didn’t know each other on the road, I stopped trying to contact Shang Muxiao, and more or less acquiesced to the matter of “breaking up”. It’s a really bad way to break up, though.

I never imagined that the first serious love affair would last for a pitiful less than a month.

So there are some things that don’t have good results if you work hard. Rehabilitation is, and so is love.

“Hello, I’m He Weizhou from Weilan Pet Hospital. Your pet is ready to be discharged. Do you want to take it home or continue foster care?”

I was on my way home from get off work when I received the call from He Weizhou.

“Is it completely healed?” I was a little surprised.

He Weizhou smiled and said: “The fracture is not so fast. The main thing for it now is to recuperate, and it can be done at home without injections and medicines. Hospitalization is of little significance. Our environment here is not suitable for long-term living, so If you can pick it up home, it’s better to pick it up.”

Hearing him say this, I immediately changed lanes and drove towards the veterinary hospital.

“Okay, I’ll pick it up now, and I’ll be there in half an hour.”

I asked Yu Xixi. She likes puppies very much, but because she currently lives in the school dormitory, she can’t raise it, so I hope I can take care of it for you. At the end of the year, when she finds a house outside the school during the winter vacation, she will pick up the puppy and go there for reunion.

She even chose the dog’s name, called Yolk.

Half an hour later, I parked the car outside the pet hospital.

After finishing the discharge procedures, He Weizhou appeared in front of me holding the egg yolk, with a big bag on his arm.

The little yellow dog slept in his arms obediently, snoring lightly, a little older than a month ago, but still thin.

I thanked him and reached out to pick it up, but the other side turned away slightly and avoided it.

I was taken aback, and looked at him for no apparent reason.

“When it wakes up, it may resist the unfamiliar environment, and try to escape from the confined space. It’s too dangerous for you to drive it alone. I just have to get off work, so let’s go with you.” He Weizhou said.

I looked at the sleeping puppy and said, “Don’t bother, I think it’s pretty good, so there shouldn’t be any big problems.”

He Weizhou didn’t say anything after hearing the words, and put the puppy in his hand directly. When it reached the ground, before it touched the ground, the little dog that had slept soundly, as if being scalded by hot oil, screamed mournfully, which startled me.

“It doesn’t like cold and hard ground.” He Weizhou explained.

“…It’s quite squeamish.”

He successfully persuaded me with the facts.

After parking the car, He Weizhou hugged the dog, and I hugged the bag of pet supplies and got on the elevator together.

“It’s legs are not good now, and it doesn’t like to go to the ground. You don’t have to walk it. It will go to the dog’s toilet when it is urgent to urinate…” He Weizhou was talking to me about how to raise a dog all the way. The feeling of not coming down.

But because I really needed this knowledge, I invited him to sit in the room and let me take a pen to write down the knowledge points.

The elevator went all the way up and quickly reached the designated floor.

He Weizhou pressed the door button and let me go first.

“Thank you for today, come in and have a cup of tea before you go.” I walked out of the elevator while talking to him, looked up and met Shang Muxiao’s eyes.

He leaned against the door with a huge cardboard box of unknown size standing beside him. He stared at me for a moment with a heavy expression on his face, then glanced behind me.

“You changed your password.” His eyes were cold. Although he said it to me, he kept looking at He Weizhou.

“Ah…” He Weizhou didn’t know what was going on, and was stuck there, in a dilemma.

I turned around and smiled apologetically at him, and reached out to hug the puppy: “It seems that I can’t entertain you today, give it to me, it’s already at the door, I’ll just go in by myself.”

He Weizhou looked back and forth between me and Shang Muxiao The two eyes are also very sensible. After handing the puppy to me, I said a word and then contacted and left.

“Contact again?” As soon as the elevator door was closed, Shang Muxiao’s voice sounded coldly.

I turned around to open the door, ignoring him.

Opening the door, I went straight to the sofa and gently placed the egg yolk on it. It raised its head and looked around curiously. It was a little uneasy at first, but after I touched it twice, it calmed down, rested its head on its front legs again, closed its eyes and fell asleep, incredibly obedient.

“Who is he?” Shang Muxiao followed up, question after question, “How can you let other men into the house? Where did this dog come from, did he give it away? Why don’t you look at me?

” Just be nice. I thought to myself.

“Arabido!” He couldn’t stand my neglect and called my name through gritted teeth.

I put the bag aside and finally faced him.

“Who do you associate with, don’t you know me?”
