MTL - Wildfire-Chapter 46
Tao Xiaodong's birthday is considered big according to the Gregorian calendar, and he is a Capricorn in January. According to the lunar calendar, it is a small birthday, the twelfth lunar month. When I was a child, my birthday was always on the twelfth lunar month, so the date in the Gregorian calendar is not certain. At that time, on the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, when others drank porridge, he had to eat more meat for his birthday.
Later, when he went out on his own, his parents were gone, so he was too busy to remember his birthday on the lunar calendar. My younger brother and friends remember my birthday in the Gregorian calendar every year, and I can still celebrate it when I catch up.
After this year's birthday, Tao Xiaodong will be thirty-five, and the age at the beginning of three is almost halfway. In fact, Tao Xiaodong can't celebrate his birthday every year, that is, to be happy with everyone, and he himself has nothing to think about.
But this year is different, there is hope this year. This year, there are people who miss me, so I start to ask for something from them.
Tao Xiaodong planned to do well. According to the current progress of the two of them, by the time of his birthday, the two of them would probably be able to hold hands and make love in front of people in a legitimate way. Those brothers in the store, together with Tian Yi, Lao Xia and others, Tao Xiaodong has been ridiculed for so many years. As soon as he arrives at the wine table, he has to introduce someone to him. It is time to let this topic end.
It's Tao Xiaodong's birthday on Saturday, and Tian Yi called on Wednesday, saying that we haven't seen each other for so long, and we must have a good reunion. He was supposed to be on duty this Saturday, and he had been with someone before, so he had to do a good job this Saturday.
Tao Xiaodong was eating breakfast at the time, and his hair was not dry yet. When Tang Suoyan came over with milk, he grabbed Tao Xiaodong's head.
"Okay, it's fine if you're not on duty." Tao Xiaodong said after biting a piece of toast.
They hadn't seen each other for a while, Tao Xiaodong really didn't have the nerve to tell Tian Yi that he went to the Third Hospital almost every day, carrying a lunch box every day, but he didn't go to see him on purpose. Having said that, it is easy to have no friends.
After hanging up the phone, Tao Xiaodong said, "I'll get a haircut after you go to work later."
Tang Suoyan looked up, and Tao Xiaodong said, "It's grown, so I have to fiddle with it. It won't look good."
"Okay," Tang Suoyan said, "Don't go to the hospital at noon, it's too late."
Tao Xiaodong said yes.
The two of them had to leave after dinner. Tang Suoyan went to the room to get his mobile phone. Tao Xiaodong put on his shoes and opened the door.
After the door opened, Tao Xiaodong looked up and was startled. He was so surprised that he couldn't resist saying "fuck".
— There was a man standing at the door.
Tao Xiaodong recognized at a glance that this was the family member who was in the basement last time. This time he looked haggard and his eyes were red.
"What are you doing?" Tao Xiaodong frowned and asked.
Tang Suoyan took his mobile phone and came over to change shoes, heard him talking to someone, and asked, "What's wrong?"
Tao Xiaodong backhanded to close the door, not wanting Tang Suoyan to come out.
Tang Suoyan didn't let him close it and walked out. I was also surprised when I saw that person.
"No, what are you doing here?" Tao Xiaodong's face was very ugly, and he kept blocking Tang Suoyan from moving, wanting him to go back.
The man's mouth moved, his voice was very low: "Doctor Tang... You lied to me, right?"
Tang Suoyan pushed Tao Xiaodong to prevent him from blocking, but Tao Xiaodong did not move. Tang Suoyan said to the other party: "No matter what you want to say, this is not a place to talk. I will not have any communication with you at my door. You can go to the hospital to find me."
"You just lied to me...Your hearts as doctors are dark. If you don't make money from us, you don't care about it. You just care about those who can make money..." The man stared straight at Tang Suoyan, "You lied to me, I was stupid to believe you."
The look in his eyes made Tao Xiaodong very uncomfortable, and the fact that he blocked the door of the house was also quite scary. Although Tao Xiaodong sympathized with him psychologically, but now he really felt more disgusted, and he said irritably, "Get out of here quickly."
"My lover left and was buried yesterday." The man lowered his head, and the white hair on his sideburns made him look vicissitudes, "You are so indifferent, we came here specially for you, for Tang Suoyan The doctor just referred it, but you didn't treat us..."
Concerned about talking to himself, he took out a small book from his pocket, walked a few steps forward, pointed to it and said, "This is my wife's cremation certificate, you don't accept it, she is cremated now...how do you So powerful? You only have money in your eyes, right?"
Tao Xiaodong pushed him away, pushing him back two steps. The man was only talking to himself, chattering away with the cremation certificate in his hand.
When he came up, Tao Xiaodong pushed him away with great strength. Tang Suoyan was blocked by him and couldn't get out, so he called him later: "Xiaodong."
Tao Xiaodong looked back at him, frowning, Tang Suoyan gave him a comforting look, Tao Xiaodong turned sideways and did not block him.
Tang Suoyan first called the property management and asked them to come up and deal with it. Then I said to the family member: "Calm down. I am sorry that your lover left, but there is nothing we can do. I told you about this result when your lover came to the clinic for the first time, and you accepted it at that time. Now You come to me repeatedly, I can understand your feelings, but I still say the same thing, go to the hospital to find me if you have something to do, this is my home. You just lost a loved one, I don’t want to call the police to deal with this matter, you go on your own.”
The man was still very quiet when Tang Suoyan was speaking, but as soon as Tang Suoyan finished speaking, the man suddenly put his hand into his pocket. Tao Xiaodong reacted quickly, he quickly took a step forward and stood in front of Tang Suoyan, very defensive.
Tao Xiaodong blocked it so tightly that Tang Suoyan couldn't push it.
"Xiaodong." Tang Suoyan frowned, "Get up."
Tao Xiaodong didn't listen to him, and when the other party took a piece of paper and walked over in a low voice, Tao Xiaodong stretched out his arm to block him, preventing him from continuing to come. The man raised his hand and smashed Tao Xiaodong's hand with the splint.
Tao Xiaodong turned pale instantly, and kicked him on the leg. The man slammed on the elevator door with a muffled bang.
Tang Suoyan became anxious and used a little more strength to lift Tao Xiaodong away: "I told you not to block me!"
Tao Xiaodong bumped his shoulder against the wall, Tang Suoyan frowned, grabbed his wrist to look at his hand.
What happened this morning was too irritating, no matter it was the person blocking the door, or Tao Xiaodong was always standing in front of him.
After watching Tao Xiaodong's hand, Tang Suoyan turned back to look at the man trapped in his own thoughts. The elevator door happened to open at this moment, and the person in charge of the property unit came up with two security guards. After learning about the situation, he asked Tang Suoyan what he wanted to do, and Tang Suoyan said "call the police" with a cold face.
"This is the second time he has come. How did he come in? Has he registered?" Tang Suoyan asked the property staff, "If he wants to find me, he can stand directly at my door, right?"
The property staff apologized to him again and again, saying that they would investigate and verify, and the gatekeepers would strengthen the review in the future.
The family member didn't even raise his head, and didn't answer when he asked him questions. Most of the time he just talked to himself in a low voice. Tang Suoyan had a lot of things going on in the hospital. He didn't have time to wait for the police to come and investigate, so he left it all to the property management.
Tang Suoyan was obviously angry. Tao Xiaodong hadn't seen him get angry very much, and this was the first time he had such a completely cold face.
The two got down and got into the car, and Tao Xiaodong called out "Brother Yan".
Tang Suoyan asked him, "Is the hand hurting badly?"
"It's okay." Tao Xiaodong glanced at his hand, "Just that moment, I didn't feel it in the past."
Tang Suoyan looked at his face and the sweat on his head, turned his head away from him, just frowned and said, "There is no truth."
He started the car, and the notification sound of the seat belt in the car was beeping. Tao Xiaodong didn't pay attention to the matter, and Tang Suoyan reminded: "Seat belt."
Tao Xiaodong buttoned it in silence, and said after a while, "I'm really fine, Brother Yan."
Tang Suoyan didn't reply, and the car was quiet for a long time. It wasn't until the car was parked in the hospital parking lot that Tang Suoyan said, "Get out of the car."
Tang Suoyan went to Corey first and explained. Then he took Tao Xiaodong to the orthopedics department to take a film.
Tao Xiaodong kept saying no, he could go by himself. Tang Suo said, "It's okay, I'll take you there."
"It's not that I can't find it, you should work." Tao Xiaodong didn't want to, "I just took a picture, so why can't I understand?"
Tao Xiaodong was a little anxious. Tang Suoyan was busy with a lot of things during this period, because his hands still had to delay work time, and he had to check the ward later. Tang Suoyan walked very fast, Tao Xiaodong walked with him, suddenly grabbed his arm, frowned and said, "Hurry up and go back to your place, I don't need you to follow."
Tang Suoyan stopped and looked at him.
Tao Xiaodong repeated again: "You go back quickly."
Tang Suoyan asked him, "Don't need me?"
Tao Xiaodong knew that he might not be very happy, but Tao Xiaodong would rather make him angry than letting him delay his work time to film with him. So he nodded and said, "No need."
Tang Suoyan also nodded, turned and left.
It was inconvenient to leave without Tang Suoyan, so Tao Xiaodong could only register and go to the queue by himself. Sitting there, he saw that there were dozens of numbers ahead, and he couldn't even find his name on the calling screen.
These numbers are enough for him to queue until the afternoon.
Tao Xiaodong sighed, went to the vending machine to buy a bottle of water, sat down in the calling area, and sat firmly, not being able to reach him within a few hours.
However, he only sat there for fifteen minutes, and suddenly a nurse came out and asked, "Which one is Tao Xiaodong?"
Tao Xiaodong made a sound.
She said, "Come with me."
Tao Xiaodong understood what was going on when he thought about it, so he followed in and joined the team. It was the same doctor from last time, who greeted him with a smile and asked him to take a film.
There was nothing wrong with the bone, except that Tao Xiaodong's hand could remove the splint in two days, but he had to carry it for a few more days after the man smashed it this morning.
After reading the results, he left. Before leaving, he sent a message to Tang Suoyan, told him he was fine, and then left first. Tang Suoyan didn't reply to him, and he didn't look at his phone when he was busy during the day.
The two of them had no contact at the end of the day. Before get off work, Tao Xiaodong called Tang Suoyan and asked him if he would work overtime.
Tang Suoyan said: "Work overtime, I don't know what time it will be, don't go back tonight, if I don't work overtime tomorrow, I will call you."
Tao Xiaodong was stunned for a moment, then said "ah" and said nothing else.
Tang Suoyan said to him: "It's hot at night, press it yourself."
Tao Xiaodong said "Got it".
I hung up without saying a few words in total.
These two people have known each other for so long, and they have lived together for a month, and this is the first time that this situation has occurred.
The family is not allowed to go back, this is really angry. Tao Xiaodong laughed at himself, thinking that Tang Suoyan had no temper, it seems that he still has some.
Although Tang Suoyan told Tao Xiaodong not to come back tonight, he came down from the hospital at 9:30 in the evening and saw Tao Xiaodong in the parking lot.
Tang Suoyan got into the car, feeling the coolness outside. The inside of the car wasn't very warm either. It had been parked here for a while, and Tao Xiaodong fell asleep, and it wasn't much warmer than outside after the car had been turned off for a long time.
Tang Suoyan asked, "When did you come?"
Tao Xiaodong said, "It's about an hour."
Tang Suoyan glanced at the time and said calmly, "It's about four hours."
Tao Xiaodong looked at him and said, "I can't let you go back by yourself."
Tang Suoyan frowned not very obviously, and didn't look at him: "Don't you understand what I'm saying?"
Tao Xiaodong said, "Understood."
"I understand but don't listen?" Tang Suoyan looked out the window, "Why do you have so many ideas?"
Tao Xiaodong still wants to say something, but the current atmosphere is really not suitable, and it is easy to quarrel with each other.
The two sat quietly for a while, Tao Xiaodong sighed, and stretched out his right hand to touch Tang Suoyan's arm, calling him "Brother Yan".
Tang Suo said "Yes" and said, "Next time, don't block me, and don't think about carrying anything for me. You will only make me panic."
Tao Xiaodong shook his head, Jian Jin came up and said, "Next time I have to be in front of you."
Tang Suoyan pursed his lips. When he was like this, he looked much stricter, which was different from his usual gentleness, a bit like him at work.
Tao Xiaodong said: "I reacted instinctively, I have to protect whoever is here."
Tang Suo said: "You just need to protect others, I don't need it."
Tao Xiaodong was also a little angry this day, although only a little bit. He looked at Tang Suoyan, and said, "What you did for Dr. Tang, I can do for you too."
Tang Suoyan rubbed his thumb on the knuckles of his index finger, remaining silent.
"You can understand my mood, Brother Yan." Tao Xiaodong paused, then continued, "You understand what that mood is."
When he said these two sentences, he was explaining his feelings to Tang Suoyan, and he didn't include any private goods. But even if he didn't have that thought in mind, those who speak without intention can't be unintentional, these two sentences have barbs.
As soon as these two sentences came out, Tang Suoyan lost, and he had nothing to say. In the previous thirteen years, the real deal was at the forefront, and this will always exist.
Tao Xiaodong felt uncomfortable after he finished speaking, and Tang Suoyan's silence let him know that he had said something wrong.
It’s true that I said the wrong thing, no matter how clever people are in front of their emotions, sometimes they are dull, and those properly controlled speeds will also fail in their emotions. No one will always remain a smart person in their emotions.
Tao Xiaodong leaned over and grabbed Tang Suoyan's hand, and said, "Brother Yan...I said the wrong thing."
Tang Suoyan shook his hand, sighed, and said slowly: "I'm afraid that he will touch your hand, and what will come."
