I hide the white roses behind me

Chapter 31

"Thanks for your hard work."

Bowing and watching the head nurse who left this sentence go away, Liu Zhien, who finished helping for half an hour, walked all the way to the door of Lin Zengxian's office.

Although she knew there would be no problem, but she was her own sister after all, so Liu Zhien would always worry about it.

Just like what Lin Zengxian told her on the riverside before, no matter how old my sister is, she is younger than her.

Tuk Tuk Tuk…

Raising his hand symbolically and knocking on the door, Liu Zhien turned the doorknob without stopping.

click...

"Morning, Zhien."

Hearing the door knock, Lin Zengxian, who was sitting on the sofa, raised his eyes and met Liu Zhien's eyes that suddenly widened.

And in those eyes, it should have been a serious and cold office, but now it seems to be a bedroom at home.

The white curtains are opened wide, inviting in the golden sunlight outside the window.

Catering to this bright and warm color, Liu Zhien's eyelashes trembled slightly, feeling the holiday fragrance like honey dancing in the air.

On the small square table, two teacups were steaming warmly and comfortably.

Lin Zengxian is leaning on the sofa, wearing a beige sweater, holding a junior high school English book in his hand, and the soft collar is like an embrace, holding the leisurely time and the nostalgia for the student days in his heart, repeating Kneading in the glow of the room.

Away from the sofa, the originally simple desk is being rubbed by textbooks and exercise books at this moment, showing a little warmth and mottled by time, like the shade of a tree filtering out the shadow of the sun, every touchable but The leaves that are no longer picked up are called "young".

The pen case with some old corners is lazily opened, and every pen is dozing quietly.

Only on the hand that was writing, there was a "little unlucky guy" whose "hat" was taken off, who could not take a nap, obediently obeying the student's ideas on the scratched paper.

And this student had just raised his head, and the pupils that occasionally showed a little childishness seemed to be soaked in the morning dew, and the "playfulness" on the corners of his lips reminded people of the wind that stirred the wind chimes. sleeve.

"Unnie, you're back."

Liu Zhimin waved his hands with a smile, then lowered his head, and looked at the textbook again.

"Head up."

Looking at Liu Zhien's face, Lin Zengxian shook the English book in his hand at her, but he was speaking to Liu Zhimin who was outside his perspective.

Without answering, Liu Zhimin raised his head, tucked his chin inward a little, and then turned his gaze to the textbook.

Unable to tell the exact reason, Yoo Ji-eun naturally eased the lines of her body, and her shoulders, which were usually stretched when she was working, also fell down.

"Senior? Aren't you resting today?"

Just like how he would close the door when returning home, Liu Zhien closed the door and walked into the room, completely forgetting that Lin Zengxian was used to opening the door when she came.

"I forgot something in the office, come and get it."

With the same tone and accent as usual, Lin Zengxian opened a new teacup, lifted the teapot and poured a cup of white tea for Liu Zhien.

From a perspective that neither Lin Zengxian nor Liu Zhien could see, Liu Zhimin pursed his lips, and gently squeezed the fingers holding the ballpoint pen.

She knew that Lin Zengxian didn't come to the office because he forgot something.

However, she didn't know what Lin Zengxian dreamed about, so she slept on the sofa here like that.

Because she felt that it might not be just a dream.

Whether it is the surgeon who descended from the sky, or the elder brother who is tolerant of the younger generation, these impressions cannot coincide with the moment when Lin Zengxian was haggard in his sleep just now.

Although she was often said to be "sensible" by the adults at this time, she was far from knowing as much as she did in the future.

But she still firmly believes that it is not tired and haggard.

That pale and brittle feeling, like a vine with thorns, wrapped around this person's body and slowly tightened.

Everyone is a storybook.

In every book there is a chapter that you don't want others to read.

"This is the first time I drink this kind of tea, what is it?"

Sitting next to Lin Zengxian, taking the teacup, Liu Zhien took a sip, touching her teeth with the tip of her tongue.

"A kind of white tea called Baihao Yinzhen. Zhimin has used his eyes too much in reviewing recently, so drinking white tea is just right."

Picking up the full jar on the table and putting it in front of Liu Zhien, Lin Zengxian tapped the lid lightly with his fingertips.

"Take it back and give it to Zhimin to drink."

Before Liu Zhien could speak, Lin Zengxian looked at her and smiled, then pushed the jar towards her again.

"I just heard Zhimin talk about the situation. Have you found a good place to arrange Zhimin? Graduation exams are a big deal."

Refilling his cup of tea, Lin Zengxian reached out and took out a box of chocolate bars from under the table.

After waking up in the morning without eating anything, his stomach was already protesting.

"Not yet, I plan to look for it after get off work at noon."

Quiet, good environment, comfortable living, daily convenience...

Although it was just to pass the time of the past few days and let my sister review with peace of mind, Liu Zhien still wanted to give her the best, instead of just finding some forced place and making do with it, that was just the last helpless choice.

"Then let Zhimin live in my apartment for a few days. The new house has a good environment. I happen to be staying in the hospital for a few days. If I don't go back, you can use it."

Lin Zengxian took off the apartment key and put it on the tea pot.

"Senior, this won't work, I can think of a way, you..."

Liu Zhien hurriedly waved his hand, took down the key, and put it back on the table in front of Lin Zengxian, and even got up from the office with Liu Zhimin, waiting to decline when he could interject.

Lin Zengxian said it lightly, but the two sisters knew that the apartment Lin Zengxian bought without any hesitation in full was a big deal, and it definitely could not be described as "a new house with a good environment".

What's more, occupying other people's houses and watching other people squeeze into a small place like an office, the two of them would never be able to do such a thing.

"Tomorrow I have an outpatient clinic. The day after tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, I will have two, one, one, and three surgeries. I originally planned to stay in the hospital and not go back. By the way, I will write my thesis. That house is empty, why don't you use it?" .”

In his mind, that dark, torn dream flashed across. Lin Zengxian, who hoped to fill up the past few days with work, picked up the key and put it on the tea pot again.

Since coming to this city, Liu Zhien has helped him too much, and Lin Zengxian has always wanted to find an opportunity to thank him.

"I know you definitely want to arrange a good place for Zhimin. My house is definitely in the most ideal state. You don't have to look at other people's faces when you use it, let alone book a room in some hotel. After all, it's no worse than usual. convenient."

Suddenly thought of something, Lin Zengxian picked up the phone and opened the phone album.

"By the way, you must remember to feed me the sparks."

He held up the phone in front of Yoo Ji-eun, and a photo was displayed on the screen.

It's the dog food I bought in the store with Kim Taeyeon before.
