Confession (Ying Cheng)
Chapter 1: Confession
At six o'clock in the morning, the sparrow flapping wings on the telephone pole broke the tranquility of the alley. Since it had just rained the night before, the sweet-scented osmanthus was beaten to pieces, like an overturned honey jar, dripping on the wet ground.
Moisture came in through the gap in the window. Xu Sui lay down on the table, her shoulders shrinking subconsciously. She raised her head with difficulty, stretched out her hand and rubbed her face to make herself more awake.
Yesterday Xu Sui had just finished two operations, plus a night shift to stay until now, the long black eyelashes can not hide the tiredness of the eyelids.
In the bathroom, Xu Sui had a mint-flavored mouthwash in his mouth, turned on the faucet and took a handful of water and simply washed his face.
At 7:50, the number of people in the department gradually increased, and everyone said good morning to each other. Xu Sui quickly finished a croissant with a pinch. The black coffee was placed next to him. Someone took it away and replaced it with a bottle of milk.
Xu Suiyi raised his head. It was a new intern. The boy scratched embarrassedly: "Doctor Xu, always drinking coffee is bad for your health."
"Thank you." Xu Sui smiled. She glanced at the time, "Go, it's time for the rounds."
Most of the patients in the inpatient department like this Doctor Xu to come to rounds. He is gentle, patient, and listens to their occasional complaints.
Several interns followed Xu Sui. She rounded the ward one after another. Yiyue raised a corner and looked down her eyes. She had a blue certificate pinned on her left chest—Puren Hospital surgeon Xu Sui.
When a girl was found during the ward round, the patient had just had his appendix cut off in two days, and Xu Sui specifically asked her to stop eating, rest and rest.
The little girl was young, and soon after the operation, she regained her vitality. She raised a pair of big eyes and said that she would die if she ate this kind of food that had faded out of the bird.
"Doctor Xu, can I drink milk tea?" the little girl asked cautiously.
Xu Sui stopped on the blue folder with his signature pen, raised his eyes to a pair of expectant eyes, and let go: "A little bit."
"Why, but I prefer to drink Yihetang." The little girl looked distressed.
"..."
The trainee behind him couldn't help laughing. Xu Sui spoke blankly, with a cruel voice: "Now you can't drink a little bit."
The little girl reacted with hindsight and regretted: "I was wrong, doctor!"
After checking the room, Xu Sui put his hands in his pocket and went back to the office, and ran into the teacher who had been carrying him in the corridor, who was also the director of surgery.
"Xiao Xu, just finished checking the room?" the other party asked her.
"Yeah," Xu Sui nodded, looking at the director as if he had something to say, he took the initiative to ask, "Teacher, what do you want?"
"You are really busy lately. You are the hardest worker in this department. You have the same energy that I used to be." Doctor Zhang smiled, with a kind face, "but also pay attention to the combination of work and rest. Your mother called me. Want me to worry about your big business."
Xu Sui was stunned. He didn't expect that the consequence of her repeated rejections of blind dates was that her mother found the director to suppress her. She settled her mind: "Teacher, do you know what my mother's dream is after middle age?"
"what?"
"Being a matchmaker, first practice with me." Xu Sui pointed to his innocent self.
"You boy," Director Zhang laughed, his tone of helplessness, and then turned around, "There is a nice guy in the family yard where I live, and the conditions are good..."
Xu Sui's eyes dangled around him, and he turned off the subject: "Teacher, why did I smell smoke on your body? It's heavy."
Everyone in general medicine knows that Dr. Zhang is exquisite in medical skills and outside his authority, but he is also notoriously afraid of his wife. Dr. Zhang's wife is the head nurse of the pediatrics department and often comes to check the post. Every time the teacher smelled the smell of smoke on his body, she threatened to smash his hands if it weren't for the care that his hands could be used to save the dead.
"I haven't had time to smoke today. It may be caused by the patient's family." Doctor Zhang grabbed his collar and sniffed, panicking, "Don't tell me, I will wash my hands first."
After the teacher left, Xu Sui finally got off work until 11 o'clock in the morning. She went home to make up for a sleep, and fell asleep in a dark place. When she woke up, the sky was completely dark, and the stars were already lit up in the distance.
Xu Suifang was empty for a while, got up and closed the window, and played a very annoying rock song using the Bluetooth of his mobile phone to connect the speaker. He stepped on the finger pressure pad to relax.
Most people think that it may be painful on the acupressure pad. For Xu Sui, it is a good way to decompress. The phone made a "ding" sound, Xu Sui sweated a little on his forehead, and directly sat on the finger pressure pad to get the phone.
Xu's mother sent a bunch of news, which meant she was going to go on a blind date.
Yun Danfengqing: [This time the guy is really good. He is two years older than you. He is still a lawyer. He is a successful person and looks good. The introducer said that he is a responsible and good guy. 】
Yun Dan and Feng Qing: [See you tomorrow? Don't make excuses, I know you won't be on duty tomorrow night. 】
Yun Danfengqing pushed you a business card, and Xu Sui clicked on the other person's avatar, and vomited: [This kind of photo-taking posture with my hands folded on my chest, I don't look like a successful student, it's like a salesman. 】
When Xu's mother saw Xu Sui's interruption, she knew that she wanted to get through as usual. This attitude was problematic. Xu's mother was a little angry, and was too lazy to type this time, and a series of death voices came over.
Yun Danfengqing: [You are 27 this year, and you are almost becoming an old girl, why are you still not in a hurry? 】
Xu Sui replied: [Mom, I don't really want to get married now. 】
At least her thinking at this stage is like this. She is relaxed and at ease, and Xu Sui is busy at work, so she really doesn't have the energy to think about it.
Light clouds and light wind: [Then what do you want to do? 】
Before Xu Sui could reply, Yun Danfengqing sent another message: [Then do you want to be a nun? 】
Xu Suishixiao was about to reply when a certain message prompt popped up on the phone screen. She clicked in. After many years, someone still liked her answer, and there was a reply.
The question is: What was the funniest thing you did during the secret love period as a student? "
On a whim, Xu Sui replied anonymously:
When I was in the second year of high school, a foreign film was released. I liked it so much that I bought a blue T-shirt around the film.
On the first day when I wore it to class, I suddenly found that he was also wearing a blue T-shirt. Although he was wearing an ordinary but blue T-shirt, my heartbeat was very obvious, and I secretly thought it was a couple style.
Maybe God sees my secret crush too hard, so he sent me a sweet coincidence.
Since then, I often wear this dress. Even the night before, I wondered if he would wear a blue T-shirt the next day. He sits in the penultimate row, and I sit in the second row upright. In the morning class every day, in order to get a better look at him, I would deliberately go in through the back door and pretend to walk by him casually. Occasionally, Yu Guang caught a glimpse of him lying lazily in his arms, with messy hair and bulging thin shoulder blades. When it is a blue shadow, the heartbeat will speed up abnormally, and I will be happy all day long.
As a result, I later discovered that this piece of clothing was a 9.9 yuan T-shirt that his girlfriend bought at the supermarket and picked up the bill. Such a stubborn boy doesn't even mind wearing it every day.
I immediately became sober and seemed to understand one thing: he might never see me.
Xu Sui's number of likes for this reply was ranked first, and many people even responded under her: It's not funny at all. Why do I feel so sad. Hug Miss Sister.
Xu Suiran was stunned. When he looked at his answer many years ago and was about to hide it, a new reply popped out: Do you still like him now?
The astringency in the eyes deepened a little bit. Xu Sui sat on the acupressure pad, and for some reason, there was dense pain in her limbs all over her body, and she couldn't breathe through.
Xu Sui did not reply, quit the software, and replied to his mother: [Okay. 】
The next night, Xu Sui dressed up specially, and she appeared in the restaurant at the address given by her mother. The other party was already waiting there.
The other party's name is Lin Wenshen, who works in a law firm, and his impression of Xu Sui is much better than the picture.
The two talked fairly well. After the meal, Lin Wenshen suggested that he should take a walk nearby. Xu Cai thought about it and went out for a blind date. There was no need to squeeze, and finally nodded.
At ten o'clock in the evening, the moonlight was bright white. Xu Sui and Lin Wenshen walked side by side, and they spoke a few words from time to time, and the atmosphere was fairly comfortable.
On the snack street, blue and red curtains are staggered in a row. Eggplants are placed on the grill with tin foil. The boss sprinkles a handful of cumin, and it makes a sizzling sound under the oil fire. The color of the charcoal grilled saury is gradually changing. Yellow, fresh and tender aroma overflowing.
The light bulb hangs above the head, and the fine dust floats on it, and the light is dim.
Cheng You took a plate of skewers and sat down in front of the man. The two drank a little wine and started chatting one after another. Cheng You handed him a bunch of beef, his tone was a little cautious: "Boss, don't be too stressed, this time...you should take a break."
Zhou Jingze was biting the string, raised his eyelids and glanced at him when he heard the words, then laughed, "What pressure can I have."
"It's fine if you don't have it." Cheng You breathed a sigh of relief.
Zhou Jingze sat opposite Chengyou, with his feet stepping on the horizontal bar at the bottom of the table. He had not sat down here for a while, and had already attracted the attention of several girls at the table next to him.
However, he was too lazy to lift his eyelids, with a cigarette between his fingertips, and the smoke rose slowly, making him handsome and cold.
Cheng You was with him, already feeling the attention from all directions, and he was too proud. In addition, he liked to talk and talk when he drank, and a lot of coercion: "Hey, boss, let alone, the past few years as a pilot I'm always flying around the world in the sky. I really haven't looked at it carefully. The place where there are many beautiful women is our Beijing city."
"Hey, look at those long legs." Cheng You sighed.
Zhou Jingze didn't look at his head, and sneered: "Look blindly and tell you Ma Zi."
Cheng You angrily retracted his gaze, his eyes brightened halfway, and he pushed his arm: "Boss, there is a water spirit on the opposite side, and he looks like a southerner."
Hearing the word "south", Zhou Jingze subconsciously raised his head, swept across a pair of dark eyes, and then froze for a moment. The other party is indeed a typical southerner, with white skin, full apricot eyes, wearing an apricot knitted dress, two thin straps, and white shoulders exposed.
"Hey, I have a boyfriend, but the atmosphere of the two is just to meet each other, and they are probably on a blind date, but the two of them have a gentle temperament, and they match very well." Chengyou commented.
Cheng You felt that the air around him suddenly cooled when he spoke. He was a little flustered, and at a glance he saw his brother snapped off a bamboo stick with his bare hands, without saying a word.
Xu Sui didn't notice the movement here, and was walking side by side with Lin Wenshen through this snack street. When it was about to end, there were a few struggles from the alley.
It turned out that an old lady selling sugar water was entangled by a few drunk bastards, and the **** was about to smash her stall on the grounds of unpalatable food. Xu Suilai had no intention of meddling, but the old man's pleading voice instantly resembled her grandmother.
Xu Suizheng was about to walk over, and Lin Wenshen pulled her back, with a shrewd tone: "Don't go there at this time. It will be miserable if you get corrupted by a gangster or an old lady."
"I like to be wronged." Xu Sui curled his lips, then looked at Lin Wenshen and pulled his hand, the other party let go in embarrassment.
The old man was pushed to the ground by a gangster headed, Xu Sui walked over to support her, his voice calm: "How much money, I will pay."
The gangster with dyed red hair saw Xu Sui's eyes light up, and put one of his hands on her bare shoulder skin: "Since it's my sister begging for mercy, forget about it, and have a drink with my brother."
"Don't... mess around, I'm a lawyer... you, you, you let go..." Lin Wen pushed his eyes deeply, too nervous to say a word.
Seeing that Lin Wenshen was a soft bubble, several gangsters waved the iron rod in his hand and asked, "Why, want to fight?"
Lin Wenshen took a step back and glanced at Xu Sui before gritted his teeth and ran away.
Hunk's hand rested on Xu Sui's shoulder, and he rubbed it presumptuously. In less than a second, Xu Sui twisted his wrist with his backhand and made a "click" sound.
"Grass, you fucking—" The red hair let go of his hand painfully, his face sank completely, and he raised the palm of one hand, and when he was about to slap it down, suddenly a slender one appeared out of thin air, with distinct joints. Shousheng intercepted the fist of the bully.
It is Zhou Jingze.
"I thought it was a woman's hand, and it was soft and boring." Zhou Jingze's tone was frivolous, muddled.
His words were tantamount to provocation. The other party freed up a hand and waved over. Zhou Jingze flashed sideways, grabbed Hong Mao's arm and punched the person to the ground. The red hair let out a painful scream.
A few people gathered around and fought all at once.
Xu Sui squatted down, helped the old man, helped her pack her things, and sent her away without saying a word.
A melee came quickly and went quickly, Zhou Jingze fleeed in a one-on-four. Zhou Jingze stood under the street lamp, a long shadow drawn in front of her.
Xu Sui raised his eyes and looked at him carefully.
Zhou Jingze wears a flight jacket with four bars on his shoulders, his head and neck are straight and oppressive, he has single eyelids, very short hair, sharp lines on his side, and a bright red blood stain on his chin. A pair of dark and sharp eyes staring at him. she.
When Zhou Jingze saw Xu Sui's heart shrank, he took a step back subconsciously. At this moment, a cool breeze blows, and the leaves and garbage bags on the roadside are rolled into the air and are crumbling.
Seeing her familiar appearance, Zhou Jingze pressed his tongue against his left cheek and sneered.
The man turned his head to spit a **** saliva into the trash can, and then knocked out a cigarette from the cigarette case. His slender fingertips twisted the **** of the cigarette, lowered his head and bit the cigarette, and the silver lighter issued a "click" "the sound of.
It's still a careless and careless look.
He was waiting for permission to speak.
Xu Sui looked away, his tone was unexpectedly alienated: "Thank you tonight, I'm leaving now."
After that, Xu Sui was taken aback. She had imagined a scene where the two met countless times, but when it really happened, they didn't even have to say anything.
Xu Sui turned around and wanted to leave. Zhou Jingze took a step closer. The tobacco smell on his body was obvious, and his biting breath made people unable to move.
From the ground, his shadow suddenly encircled her. His eyelashes drooped, and under the projection of the light, a faint haze appeared, and his tone was somewhat gritted:
"Are you on a blind date?"
