MTL - His Marriage Partner is Scheming-Chapter 41

But soon, Chi Xueyan regretted this casual move.

The phone vibrated, and Lawyer Su, who was wearing an elite profile picture, quickly sent a series of private chat messages.

[Su Yu: Old Chi, did you slip your hand and make a mistake? ? ? ]

[Su Yu: Ah, I see, Lao Chi, you finally agree with this sentence, right! Marriage really changes you! ]

Chi Xueyan: ...

I don't want to talk to someone who calls himself Lao Chi.

He avoided talking about the issue and simply changed the subject.

[Shahryar: Still in love this time? ]

[Shahryar: You straight guys seem to be pretty good at dating. ]

This is what he feels from the bottom of his heart recently.

[Su Yu:? ? ! ]

[Su Yu: Besides me, do you have other straight boyfriends who will discuss relationship issues with you? Why didn't I find out? ? ]

[Shahryar: Well, you'll probably never find out. ]

[Su Yu: Ah! ]

[Su Yu: QAQ Am I not your only dog? ]

[Shahryar:  …]

[Shahryar: Go away. ]

Straight men are truly terrifying creatures.

Chi Xueyan didn't want to deal with the duplicity lawyer Su at all, exited the chat box, returned to the dynamic interface, and ruthlessly canceled the thumb that had just been lit.

He was stuck to the comfortable sofa, his drowsiness dissipated, and he didn't want to move, so he planned not to take a nap today, and went back to the clinic after playing with his mobile phone casually.

Chi Xueyan slid down casually, admiring the daily life of relatives and friends.

Director Han and Mr. Chi have recently been obsessed with the long-lost world of the two. Even looking at the clouds outside the company window, they can see the shape of love.

Aunt Xiaoyue is trying to air-dry pink roses, and then make them into decorations that can be remembered forever.

Uncle He is inspecting and holding meetings everywhere, and he is on the go almost every day.

…below there is also a short comment left by He Qiao.

Seeing this, Chi Xueyan couldn't help laughing.

He often sees He Qiao under two feeds, one is in a love mood similar to Su Yufa, and he will silently give a like, and the other is work-related, and he will seriously leave a message.

I really love what I'm doing right now.

For example, Ye Qing is currently preparing a new section for the 3trees app, so he often goes to various fields these days, and goes to some remote areas with unique industries but inconvenient logistics to investigate and collect folk songs. He is busy in the world, but he is full of vigor and energy.

As a representative sent by the investor, He Qiao does not directly interfere with the specific operation of his company, nor does he need to follow him around, but often holds remote meetings with him to learn about the latest developments. It is both supervision and learning.

[Ye Qing: It lasted almost all night yesterday, but now I see that the stone is like a pillow, and I want to lean on it to sleep. This is probably sleepy and happy. ]

The accompanying picture is a winter strawberry field intertwined with red and green. There is a naturally formed interesting stone at the entrance, which looks like a pillow.

[Little Eleven: According to the current plan, there is plenty of time, pay attention to your body. ]

Competent and humane capitalist.

Chi Xueyan's focus was completely different.

He casually typed a line of warning.

[Shahryar: I have a stone like this, and I wake up with a stiff neck, so I don't recommend trying it. ]

Although it sounds strange, he bought a stone sculpture in the shape of a pillow that imitated the texture of cloth in the home furnishing city, and he actually tried to sleep on it.

That sleep was very cool, and even the dream was chilly.

I just rubbed my neck for a long time after waking up.

Recalling that special nap, when Chi Xueyan was typing with a smile, He Qiao had already finished talking with his mother.

He heard the mobile phone held in the palm of the other party vibrate non-stop, it was the notification tone of new news.

When Zun Sheng looked over, he also saw the brisk smile on Chi Xueyan's face.

"Are you chatting with someone?"

When Chi Xueyan heard him ask, he realized it and switched back to the chat interface.

Lawyer Su, who had been sidelined, had already babbled a lot on his own.

He said casually, "Su Yu is bothering me again."

Immediately afterwards, Chi Xueyan glanced at the accumulated unread messages, and continued to tell He Qiao: "Old Wang's bar will have a band to perform a New Year's Eve performance before it closes for the New Year. He is going to watch it with his girlfriend. By the way, do you want us to go too?"

It's clear that I want to show my affection on the spot.

Chi Xueyan has not met Su Yu's girlfriend who is also a lawyer, but in his impression, this seems to be a very long relationship.

Su Yu obviously liked the other party very much, wishing to show it to others every day.

He Qiao asked him after listening, "Do you want to go?"

"I don't know if I'll be free then." Chi Xueyan said, "What about you?"

After speaking, he felt that this question was redundant.

As expected, He Qiao nodded lightly: "You decide."

After the sudden change in their relationship with each other, they have not faced close family or friends together.

In front of relatively unfamiliar company employees, in fact, there is no need to make such an intimate gesture to prove the relationship, but it will appear inappropriate.

But in private occasions with relatives and friends, intimacy is the only option.

In the past, the skillful performance without emotion that was handy in the past suddenly became jerky and could no longer be so natural.

This is an ambiguous and thorny question.

"We'll talk about it when the time comes." Chi Xueyan decided to leave the answer to time, "Anyway, Old Wang will leave a ticket for me."

In the tacit thoughts of each other, He Qiao did not object: "Okay."

Chi Xueyan put down the warm blanket, got up from the sofa, and reminded at the same time: "The clinic is very busy during this time, I should get off work later than you today, so you don't have to wait for me to go home together."

Many people will spare time one or two months before the Chinese New Year to deal with the dental problems of themselves and their families, so that they can welcome the new year with peace of mind and better enjoy the rare time of reunion during the year.

He walked towards the door of the office, and was about to push the door to leave when he heard the person behind him seriously ask, "Then can I wait for you to go home together?"

Hearing He Qiao's question, Chi Xueyan smiled, and gently pressed the doorknob: "It's up to you."

The door lock turned, and the secretary sitting outside politely called out "Mr. Chi", and habitually went up to see him into the elevator.

The familiar figure immediately disappeared from the field of vision and appeared in the window instead.

The red-haired young man dressed casually left the office building, crossed the road lazily, and walked into the opposite building.

The sun is floating and flowing, the light and shadow on the road are changing, the flow of people is like weaving, and the sun is gradually sinking.

Until dusk, the sky becomes colorful, and the dim beauty submerges the whole city, passing by the hurried pedestrians and the always bustling coffee shop, and staining the edge of the porcelain white coffee cup with splendor.

A man in a black coat left the office building, holding a gift bag in his hand, and walked steadily across the road towards the opposite side.

He walked into the building for the first time.

According to the floor guide, the elevator stops at the floor where the dental clinic is located.

When he stepped out of the elevator, the staff at the front desk heard the movement, looked up and asked politely, "Hi, do you have an appointment?"

It is overtime now, and only a few doctors are still busy in the consulting room, all of whom are dealing with patients with complicated dental conditions.

It's all over, and logically speaking, there shouldn't be any new guests coming.

Moreover, this gentleman didn't bring any children with him, and he didn't look like the kind of adult who would be afraid of ordinary doctors, and he was still holding a gift in his hand.

Did you go to the wrong floor?

While admiring the handsome guy calmly, the receptionist was also curious in his heart.

The unfamiliar visitor's tone was very gentle: "I don't have an appointment, I'm here to find someone."

The front desk nodded clearly: "Okay, which doctor or patient are you looking for? Several doctors are off work now."

He replied, "I'm looking for Dr. Chi."

There is only one doctor named Chi here.

So she should be quick: "Doctor Chi is in the eighth clinic. You can see the guidance along this corridor. He should be off work soon. You can wait in the rest area outside the clinic."

The strange man thanked her politely, then turned and walked into the corridor.

The receptionist, who had nothing to do at the moment, stared at this figure and the delicately wrapped gift bag in his hand, and couldn't help but think, Dr. Chi is indeed the most handsome dentist she has ever seen, and even his friend's looks are different Generally, it goes well with him.

Thinking of this, she suddenly widened her eyes.

Dr. Chi, who had been crushed by many colleagues, just got married this year, and without warning, he made several colleagues secretly heartbroken.

Everyone was given sweet wedding candies, but no one had ever met his other half, only knew that his partner was a man, and he had never heard him mention his marriage partner.

...was she the first person in the whole clinic? !

Compared with the deserted front desk near the end of get off work, there are still lively human voices in several consulting rooms with lights on.

He Qiao walked near the No. 8 consultation room, the door was not completely closed, and a familiar voice came out vaguely.

But there is a touch of softness that is rarely heard in ordinary times.

Through the gap in the door, he saw Chi Xueyan wearing a white coat and a mask, only revealing a pair of beautiful eyes.

He seemed to have just solved a deeply hidden tooth. He was explaining the precautions for follow-up care to the relieved parents around him. The sobbing child was held in the arms of the adults, and he did not forget to wave goodbye to the gentle dentist.

The kid kept waving at him, as if he was reluctant to part with him, and really wanted to leave this place with so many scary tools, his eyes were full of struggle.

The smile in Chi Xueyan's eyes grew stronger, making the dusk outside the window dim.

In the end, he also gently waved to the children, and said softly, "Brush your teeth well in the future, bye."

The kid who had just had his tooth pulled looked back at him, and said vaguely, "I remember, bye."

He watched the parents leave with the children, and then moved his eyes to the door, just in time to see the waiting figure.

The assistant who was also in the consulting room was packing up the used equipment, and saw the strange man standing at the door, with a surprised expression on his face: "Sir, you are here..."

Before he could finish asking, Doctor Chi beside him interrupted with a smile: "This is my husband, come and wait for me to go home."

So the assistant involuntarily widened his eyes.

...He must be the first person in the clinic to see Dr. Chi's husband!

The assistant, who was in constant shock, was forced to end his overtime work today and lost the opportunity to be a light bulb onlooker.

Because Dr. Chi said he would handle the rest.

While Chi Xueyan was cleaning up the consulting room alone, He Qiao waited quietly by the side.

He watched him put on new rubber gloves and clean the appliances and dental chairs. The process was long and tedious, but his expression was always serious.

He Qiao could see him appearing in front of the window in a white coat every day, but this was the first time he saw him like this up close.

There is a special feeling that is difficult to describe in words.

The only feeling he can describe is that it looks good in such a dress, as if it should be like this naturally.

Dazzling red and clean white, wanton publicity and focused gentleness.

It's just that the rare tenderness has a specific target, and now it has been withdrawn very simply.

It is even more obsessive to want to catch the phantom that remains in the air.

After cleaning up, Chi Xueyan finally took off his gloves and mask.

The tight rubber left faint marks on the skin, and the next second it was thrown into the trash can.

When he lowered his head to wash his hands, the steps were also very meticulous. The running water and foam flowed over his fingertips, his skin was slightly red, and there was a pattering sound in the pool.

Behind him is the large dental chair restored to its original position, shiny and cold metal instruments, and the smell of disinfectant alcohol.

There is obviously everything here that is the cleanest, but it is shrouded in the misty light at dusk, those neat and tidy orders seem to become chaotic, and an instinctive desire grows in the reason that dominates everything.

He Qiao was trying to interrupt those foggy thoughts.

He suddenly asked, "Will adult guests be accepted here?"

The front desk clerk at the Children's Dental Clinic wasn't surprised to see him arrive alone.

"Well, some adults will come to the children's dentist specifically and think we have a better attitude."

"A few colleagues will see these patients, but I am only more patient with children, so I never pick up adults."

As he said that, Chi Xueyan remembered something, and joked: "Besides, you just don't need to see a dentist."

"—your teeth are well taken care of."

He said this on the day of the blind date, and it was the first message he sent to He Qiao.

Both times were pure jokes.

But when the four eyes met, the same sentence fell into the listener's ears, but it had a different meaning.

The curvature of the tip of the teeth, the light-colored lips, the exchange of breath.

The fleeting dusk became more and more fragile and soft, gradually occupied by night, the light could no longer illuminate the whole room, and fell silently into the pure black corner of the coat.

Chi Xueyan wiped off the water stains on his hands, took off his white coat, and when he approached He Qiao, he didn't notice the darkness in that gaze, but looked at the exquisite gift bag.

"I seem to smell a very light fruity aroma."

There should be fruit in the bag.

Chi Xueyan is very sensitive to sweet smells, not only the gift bag, but also seems to smell it on the other party.

The other party raised his hand and handed him the bag, and said in a low voice, "The strawberry grew up next to the stone pillow."

It was the post he commented on at noon, the strawberry field that Ye Qing visited today.

During the brief astonishment, accompanied by He Qiao's movements, Chi Xueyan keenly noticed that the scent had become stronger.

He laughed suddenly: "After the strawberries arrived, did you choose a box by yourself?"

The voices of the people around him responded in a dark voice.

In the same dark twilight, Chi Xueyan didn't care, he still thought about the logic of taste, turned off the light, and prepared to go home from get off work with the people waiting for him.

So the fragrance he smelled came from between He Qiao's fingers, it was an indelible aftertaste.

He stared down at the gift bag, thinking of the sweet taste of winter strawberries, and the people close at hand also stared at him with downcast eyes.

He Qiao looked at the crimson hair gently brushing against his fair neck, the strongest contrast in the dim light was like a raging tide overturning.

Like soft skin and cold stone.

Ambiguous distance and clean room.

And what he wants to do and what he can't do.
