Chen Yuncheng couldn’t help but want to get up after sitting on Ning Junyan’s lap for a long time, but Ning Junyan hugged him and refused to let go.
“Am I not heavy?” Chen Yuncheng asked, after all, he was tall and not too slender.
Ning Junyan said, “I can hold you, I want to hold you forever.”
Chen Yuncheng asked him with a smile, “Why are you so clingy?”
Ning Junyan said, “Because you have ignored me for a long time.”
Chen Yuncheng gently combed Ning Junyan’s hair with his fingers, “I was too busy a while ago, and the fair just ended today.” As he spoke about this, Chen Yuncheng felt a little excited again and told Ning Junyan about the people he had met at the fair and how many orders he had signed in the past few days.
Ning Junyan’s expression was very flat, but his eyes kept looking at Chen Yuncheng without moving away as if he was listening to him very seriously.
After a while, Ning Junyan asked him, “So have you made enough money?”
Chen Yuncheng said, “Give me a few more months, and I will pay you back 100,000 yuan first.”
Ning Junyan shook his head slowly, “I don’t want you to pay back the money. You said you would move back, and the contract is still with me.”
Chen Yuncheng’s tone was a bit hesitant, “Move back?”
Ning Junyan asked him, “Do you not like my house? Let’s sell it and buy it again, and write our two names on it.”
Chen Yuncheng was stunned for a moment, looked at him and said, “There’s no need for that, you’ll have to spend money on renovations.”
Ning Junyan said, “It’s fine, you can decorate it however you want.”
Chen Yuncheng thought of the iron chains in Ning Junyan’s room, and suddenly a lot of bad memories associated with it rose. He then said, “No need, the house is pretty good now.”
“It’s too far away from your work,” Ning Junyan said.
Chen Yuncheng said, “Actually, I’m thinking about getting a loan to buy a car.”
“Um?”
Chen Yuncheng hugged Ning Junyan’s shoulders. He felt a little tired since it was late, he leaned on Ning Junyan and said, “Sun ge gave me advice. He said that even if you have no money, you do something to keep your appearance even when you don’t have the means to when you are in business. You need to be vain, otherwise, people will think you can’t make money and will be less willing to talk business with you. So I’m considering buying a second-hand BMW that I can pay for with a mortgage.”
Ning Junyan said, “If you need money, just tell me.”
Chen Yuncheng smiled and said, “Where else can I use your money?”
Ning Junyan said: “You are all mine now. Who else’s money do you want to spend if not mine? Boss Sun?”
“How can you even be jealous of Boss Sun?”
Ning Junyan’s words were not reasonable in the slightest, “No one can do it. It can only be me.”
Chen Yuncheng held his face and kissed him, “Okay, it can only be you.”
It was too late, and Chen Yuncheng planned to leave.
Ning Junyan was unwilling to let him go.
Chen Yuncheng said, “You are on duty in the hospital, and I’m messing with you here. Do you count as dereliction of duty? What if there are emergency patients halfway through?”
Ning Junyan frowned slightly as if thinking about this question seriously.
Chen Yuncheng coaxed him, “Can I come over tomorrow night?”
Ning Junyan glanced at him and said, “Move back.”
Chen Yuncheng thought for a while, “Okay, let’s discuss it slowly tomorrow night, okay?”
Only then did Ning Junyan let Chen Yuncheng get up from his arms.
Chen Yuncheng stood up, and when he saw that Ning Junyan had also gotten up, he was about to turn around and walk towards the door, but at that moment, the mobile phone that Ning Junyan had been keeping on his desk rang.
At this hour, there was no telling who would be calling Ning Junyan.
Ning Junyan glanced at the incoming call, connected it, and in a slightly cold tone answered, “What’s the matter so late?”
There was a faint voice coming from the phone, Chen Yuncheng couldn’t hear it clearly. It sounded like a woman’s voice, somewhat agitated.
Ning Junyan’s expression remained unchanged, but he stood up straight, and his eyes became serious. He said, “Don’t be nervous, I’ll go to the emergency room now. You guys just follow the car.”
The person on the other side of the phone said a few more words and ended the call.
Chen Yuncheng looked at him and asked, “What’s wrong?”
Ning Junyan stuffed his mobile phone into the pocket of his white coat, put his arms around Chen Yuncheng’s waist and led him outside, and said as he walked, “Nothing, my father is not feeling well, my mother has called an ambulance to bring him here now.”
Chen Yuncheng asked in surprise, “Is it serious?”
Ning Junyan said, “It’s okay, you can go back first, I’ll take you downstairs and call you a taxi.” After he said that, he lowered his head and kissed Chen Yuncheng on the lips, then stretched out his hand and opened the door of the office.
Chen Yuncheng didn’t stop, but said, “I’ll stay with you.”
Ning Junyan shook his head, “I’ll take care of it. There’s no need for you to stay and face my mother.”
Chen Yuncheng knew that an ambulance had been called to bring him to the hospital and that Ning Junyan’s father’s illness was certainly not as light as Ning Junyan’s tone of voice. He had no feelings for Ning Junyan’s parents, but he cared about Ning Junyan. No matter what the relationship between their family was, they were his blood relatives after all, and Chen Yuncheng wanted to stay with him.
They took the elevator downstairs.
Ning Junyan’s expression was very calm.
Chen Yuncheng could not help but hold his hand.
Ning Junyan turned his head, rubbed his forehead against the top of Chen Yuncheng’s head, and said, “It’s okay, wife.”
Chen Yuncheng felt that these words were more like Ning Junyan comforting himself, so he nodded and repeated, “It’s okay.”
He insisted that he refused to go, so Ning Junyan took him with him to the emergency hall, and soon after he arrived, he heard the sound of an ambulance.
Chen Yuncheng knew that he couldn’t help, so he followed Ning Junyan far away, watching him trot towards the ambulance, and when Ning Zhanghong was carried off from the ambulance and put on a movable bed, Ning Junyan instructed the doctor on duty at the emergency department to arrange for tests to be done immediately.
“Electrocardiogram and Echocardiography,” Ning Junyan said in a quick and steady tone as he followed the propelling hospital bed forward while pressing his stethoscope to Ning Zhanghong’s left chest to examine him.
Chen Yuncheng saw the pale and painful face of the middle-aged man on the hospital bed. Immediately afterwards, he saw Shu Rong running behind the hospital bed in a hurry. Shu Rong had no makeup on and was wearing a sleeveless dress with a tense expression.
Shu Rong also saw Chen Yuncheng, she slowed down briefly, and then quickly followed without talking to Chen Yuncheng.
Chen Yuncheng didn’t care. He followed them and saw Ning Zhanghong being sent for examination. Ning Junyan followed into the examination room. He could only wait outside, and Shu Rong was also waiting outside.
“Auntie,” Chen Yuncheng took the initiative to greet Shu Rong.
He didn’t know if it was because of the lack of makeup, Shu Rong’s whole face looked very pale. She sat on a chair in the waiting area, looked up at Chen Yuncheng, still maintaining that well-bred attitude, and asked, “Why are you here?”
Chen Yuncheng said, “I’m here to find Junyan.”
“Oh,” Shu Rong didn’t continue to pursue, just nodded, stood up again, and walked back and forth restlessly. The air-conditioning in the hospital was sufficient. She was wearing thin clothes and unconsciously hugged her arms.
When Chen Yuncheng saw this, he took off his coat and helped her put it on.
Shu Rong turned her head to look at him, then looked down at the coat dr4p3d over her shoulders, took it off and handed it back to Chen Yuncheng, “Thank you, it’s not necessary.”
Chen Yuncheng said, “It’s too cold here, Auntie. You should put on.”
Shu Rong showed a forced smile, “I’m not used to the smell of alcohol and tobacco.”
Chen Yuncheng was stunned for a moment, he realized that he had eaten out tonight, and his coat had a lot of alcohol and tobacco smell on it, but he didn’t mention it when he got close to Ning Junyan just now. Chen Yuncheng put back his coat and said, “I’m sorry.”
Ning Junyan was busy all night, accompanying Ning Zhanghong to do various examinations. It was only until dawn that Ning Junyan walked out of the examination room.
Shu Rong stood up suddenly and asked, “How is it?”
Ning Junyan didn’t answer, he walked up to Chen Yuncheng and said to him, “You should go back and rest soon, I have to get ready for the operation.”
Chen Yuncheng couldn’t help but grabbed his arm, “You’re going to do surgery now? You haven’t slept all night.”
Ning Junyan raised his hand to stroke his hair, and said, “It’s okay.”
Shu Rong kept looking at them.
After Ning Junyan and Chen Yuncheng finished talking, they turned to Shu Rong and said, “Acute aortic dissection. It must be operated on as soon as possible. I will do it myself.”
