Chapter 54
Without even thinking about it, Yu Zhou made a phone call.
After asking for a long time, Su Chang couldn’t explain clearly. He asked what the symptoms were, and choked out two words: “Mm, cough.”
“Is there anything else?” Yu Zhou frowned.
Su Chang seemed to be observing carefully, and he could hear the sound of the cow and the cat knocking on the cat food.
She took a few shallow breaths on the phone, a little innocently: “No.”
“hiss…”
While talking on the phone, Yu Zhou used Baidu on his ipad. Some said pneumonia, some said cat nose branch, and some said herpes virus or calicivirus. Most of them had cough symptoms at the beginning.
Some of the above viral infections are quite deadly to cats.
She asked again: “Did you go to the hospital to draw blood? Have you been tested for the virus?”
“Done.”
“What did you do?”
There was a sound of breathing when the phone was close to her mouth, and then there was the sound of thin paper rustling. She seemed to be holding the phone around her neck, looking for the checklist with both hands.
“Hmm…” He spoke with his face tilted, with a nasal voice of thinking, “Blood routine, biochemistry, and stool tests have all been done, and there is nothing wrong with it.”
“When was it checked?”
“yesterday afternoon.”
“Did you still cough last night?”
“Um.”
“How is the cat’s mental state?”
Another nasal sound of thinking: “I love to sleep.”
Isn’t this nonsense, which cat doesn’t like to sleep, Yu Zhou was speechless.
As if feeling Yu Zhou’s aphasia, the phone paused and said, “Is it convenient for you to come over and have a look?”
Yu Zhou thought for three or four seconds, and asked, “Do you still live there?”
“No. The Pearl River Pavilion.”
Hearing Yu Zhou’s silence, Su Chang said softly again: “Block C, 12F, I’ll tell the property manager that you’re here, and ask the security guard to swipe your card for you on the 12th floor.”
“Okay.” Yu Zhou hung up the phone.
Looking at the time, it was past seven in the evening, and she was supposed to order takeaway, but she wasn’t too hungry, so she entered the second bedroom and knocked on the door, but there was no response from inside, and Xiang Wan seemed to be asleep.
So I sent a message to Xiang Wan’s WeChat, leaving a message telling her to go out for a while, remember to eat something to pad her stomach when she wakes up, and change her sanitary napkins frequently.
Then put away the old lady’s heart, changed her clothes and went out to be the old lady of the cow cat.
Of course, Yu Zhou has heard of the Zhujiang Waterside Community. Many celebrities live there. When a pair of celebrities cheated and were photographed, it was even on the news. When it was exposed, many people paid attention to the couple who stole food. The imposing gates and unit buildings in the moving picture sigh, so advanced…
Even the basement is neater than usual.
Get off the main road and enter the outer gate of the community. There is a driveway around the community. It is very clean and there are not many cars. Occasionally, there are two or three nanny cars parked on the side of the road. After driving for a while, we arrive at the place Su Chang said. South Gate.
Yu Zhou paid the money and got out of the car. It was so painful, it was more than 40 yuan.
The new Chinese-style small waterfall at the entrance is clattering with water curtains, and Yu Zhou can’t brush his face. He registers visitors under the watchful eyes of the security guards at the gate, and sighs that the security level is very good. Will he still be caught? She is thinking.
Wearing an ordinary T-shirt and entering the gate, following the hotel-style brown stand, Block C is not far away, and Su Chang refers to the nearest gate.
Smoothly swipe the card to enter the elevator, ascend to the 12th floor and directly connect to a small garden for entering the house. The large flat floor is modern and cold, and the huge floor-to-ceiling windows reflect the sporadic lights outside, like a vertical sky.
Su Chang sat on the sofa next to the sky with his back to her, playing with his mobile phone.
Hearing the movement, she stood up, wearing a set of gray home clothes, Yu Zhou saw that her hair was dyed black.
Yu Zhou looked around and asked her: “The last time I saw you photographing cows, are you still there? Have you changed rooms?”
“No, it’s my grandma’s. My house is being repainted, and I’ll move in here for a while.”
Yu Zhou breathed a sigh of relief, let’s just say, Su Chang usually lives in a duplex, which is not small, but the community and area are not so exaggerated.
“So, where is your grandma?” At home? Yu Zhou became nervous again.
“Oh, she’s been in Canada for the past six months.”
Su Chang put his hands in his pockets and watched her change her shoes.
“Is it okay for me to wear these?” Yu Zhou didn’t know which pair belonged to the customer.
“It’s okay, whatever you want, any pair will do.”
Speechless, Yu Zhou is very speechless, do you know that when you go to a strange place, you should pass slippers to the guests. Standing like a door god, I don’t know what I’m doing.
Forget it, she didn’t care about it, and asked her directly: “Where’s the cow?”
Su Chang turned sideways and pointed to the restaurant.
Yu Zhouji walked over with his slippers on, and saw the cow cat still eating cat food in the corner of the restaurant.
She squatted down, Su Chang also squatted down with her, Yu Zhou looked left and right: “This spirit is not bad.”
“yes.”
“That’s right?” Yu Zhou raised his voice at the end and looked at her, “Tell me that it likes to sleep.”
“yes.”
…
The two put their hands in their hands, squatting like a street guy and smoking a cigarette, and looked at the cow cat for a while, their legs were a little numb, Yu Zhou asked, “Why didn’t you hear it cough?”
“nighttime then.”
“Isn’t it night?”
“I heard it cough twice at one or two o’clock in the middle of the night.”
…
She wanted to ask Su Chang, what do you mean? You mean I have to stay here until one or two in the middle of the night?
“Maybe, I’ll cough in a while.” Su Chang was uncomfortable being watched by her, and he added a sentence in case she misunderstood something.
Yu Zhou looked at her like a fool.
Are you looking forward to it?
Su Chang cleared his throat and walked to the living room: “Sit down for a while.”
It’s all here, Yu Zhou exhaled, comforting himself that he spent 80 or 90 yuan to buy a ticket for a few hours of in-depth sightseeing of the Pearl River Waterside Pavilion and the exploration of the lower limit of human IQ.
There was nothing on the coffee table, and the TV was off. Yu Zhouqian sat, and Su Chang sat on the other side of the sofa, with one leg hanging down and the other bent like a cross. Sitting was normal, and then opened WeChat Started replying with a few work messages.
Feeling on pins and needles like a thorn in his throat, how could he be so boring, Yu Zhou also took out his mobile phone and started to browse Weibo.
“Are you hungry?” Su Chang asked back on WeChat.
Yu Zhou shook his head, feeling that she should not be able to see, and added: “I’m not hungry.”
“Did you come for dinner?”
“I haven’t eaten, but I’m not hungry.”
…
After being quiet for a while, Su Chang asked again: “Then, are you greedy?”
puff. Yu Zhou almost laughed out loud.
She was a little helpless, and asked, “Does your grandma have melon seeds?”
Su Chang raised his head and thought for a while in a daze: “There are pistachios, do you want to eat them?”
“That’s fine.”
Su Chang stood up, walked up the steps of the restaurant, searched in the sideboard, brought over an unopened can of pistachios, unscrewed it and handed it to Yu Zhou.
Yu Zhou said thank you, put a napkin on it, and started peeling it off.
She really wanted to tell Su Chang, let’s turn on the TV, sister, it won’t be embarrassing to turn on the TV.
She also didn’t understand that the two of them had been under the same roof for a long time, how could it be so embarrassing to meet after breaking up? She thought and thought, and realized that when she was at home, she turned on the TV by herself. Su Chang doesn’t watch TV, but he doesn’t dislike her being noisy.
One pair of slippers per person, not too many, their small home has no guests or even relatives, and there is no such thing as handing slippers to others.
In other words, Su Chang didn’t treat her as an outsider, so he didn’t even bend down to be polite.
Su Chang may still think that Yu Zhou should be the same as before, find food and turn on the TV by himself.
But Yu Zhou’s mentality changed, she came as a guest, and felt that Su Chang was like a poorly behaved host, a host who was so clumsy that he didn’t have basic hospitality.
For example, now that the master didn’t turn on the TV, how could she have the nerve to turn it on.
Alas, she sighed, and looked at the little cow chasing and biting the cat toy again, feeling that this trip was ruined.
After peeling and eating a dozen or so pistachios, she asked Su Chang, “Why is your hair dyed?”
Su Chang put down the phone and smiled lightly: “I found out, it’s not very popular anymore.”
Laughing to death, you just know, how many lifetimes ago did I tell you?
Everything has an expiration date, otherwise it is easy to become obsolete.
“Does it look good?” Su Chang tilted his head and asked her.
“It’s very good, it suits you very well.” All black hair is very suitable for Su singing, otherwise she looked like a little fairy in the hospital back then.
Su Chang raised the corner of his mouth, and asked again: “What about the highlighting before, is it suitable for me?”
“Uh, it’s quite suitable. You look good anyway, you look so good-looking, right, haha, asking this kind of question.”
Su Chang looked at her and asked softly, “Really?”
Yu Zhou said she was pretty, and she was still a little happy, but what she actually meant just now was, is the effect of my dyed hair the same as you thought at the beginning?
But she looked like Yu Zhou didn’t want to talk to her much.
She sighed in her heart, and really wanted to ask, why did she talk so much with Xiang Wan when she went out to eat, and why could she pick food from her bowl so naturally?
She was a little sour, and it seemed more than a little.
She used to be extremely confident that the relationship between her and Yu Zhou would not go to the point of being silent, because Yu Zhou has a lot of ideas, and his ideas are unconstrained, and she can make up a love story between an ant and a polar bear when she meets an ant on the road. Then make fun of yourself.
At that time, she felt that with such a person, there must be endless things to say.
It was only later that I realized that the words can really be finished, because the story between you and her is over.
Su Chang took a deep breath, leaned on the sofa, and looked at Yu Zhou while sitting sideways.
“Why didn’t Xiang Wan come with you?”
Yu Zhou glanced at her, still with one leg bent, and the collar buttons of his home clothes were casually fastened, revealing more than half of his right collarbone.
This posture is natural, as if they have never been separated.
“Her aunt is here and she’s not feeling well. She should be sleeping right now.” Yu Zhou came back to his senses and patted the residue on his hands.
Su Chang leaned over and handed over the wet tissue.
Yu Zhou took it habitually, took it apart and wiped his hands.
Su Chang moved the tissue box in front of her again.
“The last time I asked you, you said that she would not live in your house all the time. Did she say how many months she planned to live in?”
“Well… I don’t have any specific plans, but I talked to her today. She is also accepting commercial dramas now. When her income stabilizes, she will move out.”
Yu Zhou straightened up, but didn’t want to lie down on the back, Su Chang handed over a pillow to rescue her empty hands and arms.
Seeing that Yu Zhou was hugging him comfortably, Su Chang leaned back, thought for a while, and said, “I’m in that apartment on Funan Road, you know, it expires in late November, and the tenant doesn’t renew the contract, so I haven’t found an agent to sign it up yet.” , why don’t you ask…”
“No, no, she can’t afford to rent that house of yours. I’m thinking whether she should share it with others for the time being. Besides, she has never lived by herself, so maybe I can feel more at ease when sharing the house.” Yu Zhou interrupted she.
The words “Don’t worry” made Su Chang stunned, and he didn’t speak for half a minute.
“I can…”
Before she finished speaking, Yu Zhou shook his head: “I know you don’t need this rent, but it’s not good to rent it to her cheaply. She owes you favors, and she has to pay them back.”
It turned out that she knew that the favor had to be repaid, but she was very meticulous about Xiang Wan’s affairs, as if she had never considered the issue of Xiang Wan’s debt to her.
Su Chang looked a little sad, she was silent for a while, then moistened her lips, and said in a low voice: “Yu Zhou, am I an indifferent person in your heart?”
“Ah?” Yu Zhou didn’t know why she said this suddenly.
Su Chang blinked slowly, thinking while saying: “I just think…”
how to say.
“You can help everyone, even all small animals, without asking for anything in return, but you don’t seem to think that I want to help others.”
In Yu Zhou’s heart, Su Chang and her have never been the same kind of people.
There are no conditions for Yu Zhou to be a person and do things, but it seems to her that Su Chang’s behavior trajectory needs to be measured by interests.
“No,” Yu Zhou became a little anxious, and the speed of his speech also increased, “I just feel that I have nothing, I do something, it doesn’t matter, there is no favor, I, I am very cheap, you You know? I don’t know how to describe this feeling, but I think, you are very expensive.”
There is a feeling that her own love is worthless and worthless, but what Su sings, whether it is time or energy, is very valuable and valuable.
“Besides,” she said, lowering her head, “you’re very busy, and I don’t want to bother you.”
She has nothing to do day by day, and it’s okay to be busy.
Seeing her like this, Su Chang’s eyes were slightly hot, and she asked in a very soft voice: “What if I want to be disturbed? What if I like it?”
I like the noise of you turning on the TV, even if I don’t watch it, and I like your busy trivial matters, even if it has nothing to do with me.
Some things are not necessarily only expensive and cheap, but also emotional value, liking, and willingness, isn’t it?
“You mean,” Yu Zhou couldn’t turn the corner, “Actually, you also like me, like making friends and helping others, right?”
“I…”
It doesn’t seem to be the case, Su Chang doesn’t know how to say it.
“Uh…” Yu Zhou raised his index finger in embarrassment, bit his nails, “I’ll ask Xiang Ban about the house.”
She was afraid that Su Chang would be as angry as he was in the shopping mall last time.
Su Chang saw that there was a little helplessness in her eyes, so she swallowed back the words that came to her lips. After all, she didn’t want to make the atmosphere of chatting too stiff.
So she propped her face lightly with her backhand, leaned on the arm of the sofa, and didn’t speak any more.
There was movement from the restaurant, Yu Zhou heard it first, and touched Su Chang’s knee.
Su Chang came back to his senses, turned his head to take a look, got up and pulled her to the restaurant.
“Look, it coughed.”
She pointed at the little cow that made a retching sound of “cough, cough, cough”. The little cow was bent over, looking very uncomfortable, and Su Chang’s eyes were a little distressed.
Yu Zhou took a few breaths calmly, and instead of looking at the cow cat, he only looked at Su Chang seriously.
“You call this a cough?” Her voice was calm.
“Isn’t it?” Su Chang frowned, almost like a human cough.
Yu Zhou twitched his chest and gave a dry laugh: “It’s a hairball, it didn’t come out.” He licked his hair too much.
“Give it some hair cream, sister.” Speechless.
