Chapter 869: Give Choubao a Brother
Squad leader Fu Xinglei and Tian Dayong pushed open the ward door and walked in. They saw laughter and joy in the ward.
The joy of family reunion filled the air on New Year's Eve. The two of them quickly waved their hands to signal everyone to be quiet:
"It's already past ten o'clock. Mother Mu needs to rest. The restaurant's banquet is ready. Let's go over and celebrate!"
Dou Jinde walked towards Jiang Chengyu leisurely, with a playful and uninhibited tone:
"Mr. Jiang, Dou wants to have a drink with you. I have been thinking about it for a long time. Last New Year's Eve at Jinyang Villa,
The room is full of people around you, but you are sleeping in the wheelchair. No matter how much you drink, there is always a void in your heart.
I'm so glad to see you standing here on New Year's Eve this year. I have to drink until I'm drunk tonight."
Jiang Chengyu raised his hand and poked him in the chest, with a smile in his eyes: "You are a big drunkard. I heard from Chou Bao,
Last year, I was confined to a wheelchair and was sleeping. I'm afraid you took out all the collections in the basement and drank them all for me, right?"
Dou Jinde chuckled and said without hesitation: "Isn't it so exciting to spend New Year's Eve with you?
This year, the original owner is here, so I can’t drink this wine alone.”
Fu Xinglei also came over and said earnestly: "Professor Jiang, Maomao and I's wedding banquet,
You were so inconvenienced at the time and didn't get to drink it. Tonight, I must offer you this wine back, not a single glass less."
Coleman raised his glass and cheered, "And me! Last year has become a memory too old to look back on. Tonight, we must all finish our toasts!"
Jiang Chengyu smiled and waved his hand: "Everyone, have fun tonight. I won't be going. Someone needs to look after Mom. I have some good wine in the restaurant, you can drink as much as you want."
Mu Xiaoji quickly answered in a warm tone: "I'm allergic to alcohol, and going there will only cause trouble. Mom is here with me.
Mr. Jiang, it's rare for everyone to get together with you, so just go and have fun with them! We may not be able to get together again next year."
Jiang Chengyu was still hesitating when Mu Huiying said in a friendly and loving tone, "Yu'er, Mommy is tired and is going to sleep now. With Xiaoji here, you can go play with everyone without worry!"
Everyone started to jeer, "Oh, Professor Jiang, let's go!"
Du Wei and Wang Yan smiled and walked over, pushing him out from the left and right, teasing him, "Jiang Shuai, you're condescending to serve a lady like this, pouring wine?"
Jiang Chengyu's steps became lighter as he was pushed forward. He said casually, "You don't need to tell me. I will continue to serve the ladies as before."
Everyone smiled and said goodnight to Mu Huiying, each carrying a fruit plate and dishes and walked out. Once the ward door was closed,
The noise was blocked outside, leaving only the "bang bang" sound of fireworks outside the window, making the room particularly quiet.
Mu Huiying looked at Mu Xiaoji and asked softly, "Yu'er, is he still thousands of miles away from you?"
Mu Xiaoji was tidying up the coffee table, his tone calm: "I can feel that he has a knot in his heart, and it takes time to heal. Let him be!"
On the other side, Dou Jinde took Jiang Shuo by the hand and parted ways with the others in the corridor. While the main group went to the restaurant, he took Jiang Shuo to the parking lot.
The moment he opened the trunk, Jiang Shuo's eyes lit up: "It turns out that Uncle Dou had prepared it!" Then he picked up a bundle of fireworks and ran to the open area in the hospital yard.
At this time, a taxi stopped steadily at the edge of the yard. Xiao Yue, wearing a cheerful Tang suit, got out of the car and shouted loudly: "Stinky treasure——"
"Mom!" Jiang Shuo turned around and waved the fireworks, "Uncle Dou brought a lot of fireworks!"
"Run slowly, don't fall." Xiao Yue came over and straightened his collar for him. "Where's grandma?"
"Dad is with me in the ward." Jiang Shuo responded while unpacking the fireworks.
"Happy New Year, Lawyer Dou. I'm going upstairs to see your wife." Xiao Yue turned around and greeted Dou Jinde.
Dou Jinde didn't say anything, just made an "OK" gesture, watched her back disappear at the hospital entrance, then turned around to help Jiang Shuo set up the fireworks.
Laughter could be heard faintly from the restaurant in the distance. Jiang Shuo was counting the fuses excitedly nearby. Fireworks exploded in clusters in the night sky, casting their shadows on the ground, sometimes bright and sometimes dim.
When Xiao Yue pushed open the door of the ward, he saw Mu Xiaoji sweeping the floor carefully with a broom, not even leaving out the fruit shells and crumbs in the corner.
She hurried forward and reached out to grab the broom: "Master Chenxi, you can't do these things, just leave it to me."
Mu Xiaoji dodged sideways with a warm smile on his face: "It's okay, I'll just sweep it.
Go get a basin of warm water and help Mom wipe her hands and feet—she's been sitting for a long time today and she must be exhausted."
"Okay." Xiao Yue responded crisply and turned to go into the bathroom.
Amid the sound of water gurgling in the porcelain basin, she added some warm water, took a clean towel from the disinfection cabinet, wrung it half dry, and walked quietly to the bedside with the basin.
Mu Huiying was sleeping soundly with even breathing, so she moved gently and carefully wiped the back of the old man's hands and ankles, her movements so gentle as if she was afraid of disturbing his dreams.
The restaurant was a different scene. The light from the crystal chandelier filled the room with brilliance.
The dynamic music surged like a heat wave, several bottles of wine on the table were overturned, and many people's faces were slightly red from being drunk, but they all smiled happily.
Jiang Chengyu was surrounded by a group of girls, who swayed their bodies to the music.
Some of them clinked their juice cups with his, some chattered and joked, with undisguised admiration in their eyes, making him look like the moon surrounded by stars.
Jiang Shuo was just about to witness this scene when he followed Dou Jinde in. He had just finished setting off fireworks in the yard, his face still red from the cold, and he was still clutching a small firework stick that he hadn't used up.
Dou Jinde was sharp-eyed and saw Cui Jiani sitting alone by the window, holding a wine glass in her hand.
His eyes fell on the group of girls surrounding Jiang Chengyu, with a helpless smile on his lips, as if he was watching a lively event that had nothing to do with him.
Dou Jinde knew that Cui Jiani was unwilling to give in, and her love for Mu Xiaoji and Jiang Chengyu was complicated and deep.
Now I see them getting married and then breaking up, and I feel helpless and regretful at the same time.
He walked over lightly, picked up his wine glass, and gently clinked it with the glass in front of her, making a crisp "ding" sound.
Cui Jiani came back to her senses, and a happy smile instantly spread across her face: "Happy New Year."
She picked up the wine glass, intertwined her arms with Dou Jinde's, took a sip, and the wine stained the corner of her lips, which he gently kissed with his head down.
"Happy New Year! Honey, I'm going to have a drink with Mr. Jiang." Dou Jinde rubbed her hair.
She turned and walked towards Jiang Chengyu in the crowd, stretched out her hand and pulled him out from the group of girls, "Come on, let's drink with us men."
The two walked over to the table of men sitting with Fu Xinglei and Ke Laiweiler. Jiang Chengyu picked up the white wine glass on the table and raised his glass with a smile: "Happy New Year, everyone."
"Happy New Year!" Everyone raised their glasses, and the sound of the glasses clinking was clear and loud. Jiang Chengyu raised his head and drank it all.
As soon as he put down the cup, Dou Jinde took the bottle and filled it up again with a "gulp".
Here, Jiang Shuo walked up to Cui Jiani, looked up at her and said, "Sister Jiani, Happy New Year."
Cui Jiani smiled and touched his head, then her eyes drifted towards Jiang Chengyu and she sighed softly:
"Jiang Shuo, does your little daddy have some secret to stay young? After all these years, he still looks like this.
Look at those sisters, their eyes are almost glued to him, how can he be so impeccable? He is truly a rare talent! "
There was too much reluctance hidden in her words. She had devoted her youth to the love for Mu Xiaoji and Jiang Chengyu over the years, and she single-handedly supported the position of director of Renxin Hospital for them.
Just to protect Mu Xiaoji's property and the heavy love hidden in his heart.
Jiang Shuo followed her gaze and saw that the little daddy was talking to Fu Xinglei. His profile was clearly outlined under the light and he was indeed handsome.
But he didn't say anything, just lowered his head, letting everyone's emotions ferment naturally. The adult world is too complicated.
He didn't want to understand, nor could he understand, the deep meaning in those eyes and those unspoken words.
The New Year's bell rang out from outside the window on time, distant and clear, and the restaurant instantly erupted in deafening shouts: "Happy New Year——!"
The waves of cheers hit the glass and bounced back, mixed with the roar of fireworks exploding, making the whole night hot.
Dou Jinde and Cui Jiani supported the drunk Jiang Chengyu on both sides. His steps were unsteady, his head tilted on his shoulder, and he mumbled "one more drink" vaguely.
The elevator went directly to the office on the top floor. Jiang Shuo pushed open the door first. Only a floor lamp was on in the room, and the light was dim and soft.
The two carefully helped Jiang Chengyu to the big bed in the inner room. As soon as his body touched the mattress, he slid down.
He randomly grabbed a pillow and hugged it in his arms, mumbling "I'm not drunk... continue...", and then fell silent, his breathing gradually becoming heavier.
"Uncle Dou, Sister Jiani, you can go back now." Jiang Shuo covered him with a thin blanket and looked up and said, "Little Daddy, I'm here, don't worry."
Dou Jinde rubbed his hair with a smile in his eyes: "Okay, good night, young master."
Cui Jiani was still worried and looked at the person on the bed: "Really, we don't need to stay and help?"
"Really," Jiang Shuo waved his hand firmly, "He's very well behaved when he's asleep."
Dou Jinde smiled and put his arm around Cui Jiani's shoulders: "Let's go, don't worry." The two of them closed the door briskly, and the footsteps in the corridor gradually faded away.
Jiang Shuo turned around and went to the bathroom to wring out a towel, wanting to wipe his face. But when he came out with the towel, the bed was already empty.
Jiang Chengyu woke up at some point and was walking out dazedly, holding onto the wall with his eyes wide open.
His steps were extremely firm, as if being pulled by something, and he moved towards the elevator along the route he remembered.
In VIP801 ward, Mu Xiaoji was leaning on the mattress, holding an open book in his hand, but his eyes were fixed on the fireworks outside the window, his thoughts in a mess.
The door lock clicked softly, and he looked up to see Jiang Chengyu stumbling in, his cheeks flushed with drunkenness, a silly smile on his lips: "Xiao Ji, Happy New Year..."
Mu Xiaoji's heart skipped a beat and he quickly stood up to get the prosthesis beside the bed - he had taken it down for cleaning at night and had not put it back yet.
But before he could reach it, Jiang Chengyu pounced on him and pushed him back onto the bed, reeking of alcohol.
His eyes were blurred, as if covered with a layer of mist, but his left hand gently stroked Mu Xiaoji's hair, his fingertips feeling hot.
"Xiaoji..." he called softly, his voice hoarse.
"Little monster, you are drunk." Mu Xiaoji wanted to push him, but his wrist was held firmly.
"Xiao Ji..." Jiang Chengyu called out again, as if the desire that had been suppressed for a long time had finally found an outlet, and he leaned over and kissed her.
The kiss was strong like wine, yet with an irresistible tenderness. Her left hand skillfully unbuttoned his pajamas, and her fingertips brushed across his skin, causing a shudder.
"Little monster, do you know what you are doing?" Mu Xiaoji's voice was panting.
"Xiao Ji, I want you..." Jiang Chengyu's kiss went all the way down to the neck and collarbone, hot and eager.
An idea suddenly flashed through Mu Xiaoji's mind. He looked at Jiang Chengyu's red eyes and whispered, "Little monster, give Jiang Shuo a little brother?"
Jiang Chengyu's movements were greedy, and he had long lost his sense of self-awareness. He just responded vaguely: "Okay... give Chou Bao... a little brother..."
In the chaos, Mu Xiaoji seized the opportunity, leaned over and took out a sterilized test tube from the drawer of the bedside table.
When Jiang Chengyu's consciousness was overwhelmed by alcohol and instinct, he quickly collected the samples, tightened the lid and put them in his arms.
After everything calmed down, Jiang Chengyu fell into a deep sleep, his breathing evenly spraying on his neck.
Mu Xiaoji held the small test tube, and the liquid inside seemed to weigh a thousand pounds.
He collapsed in Jiang Chengyu's arms, looking at the blurry light and shadow on the ceiling, and suddenly smiled.
There were tears in his eyes, but a satisfied smile appeared on the corners of his mouth - this time, perhaps it was a new beginning.
