Chapter 44: He Rushed Madly Into…

Translator: Claire.KK

Zhishu He shook his head, “Dr. Ai, we’d better keep our distance. You know, I can’t respond to your feelings.” He made it clear and there was no euphemism at all. Besides, he never made it for considering some of his own interests.

Ziyu Ai only said, “I do not want anything from you. I happen to want a rest too, so we have the same destination. Don’t refuse me. You can regard me as your friend taking you for fun.”

Zhishu He turned his head and saw the busy street view flashing by in front of his eyes, “…I don’t want others to feel wronged.”

“Now that you allow me to accompany with you, that’s enough for me. As long as you are not the one feeling wronged, I will be happy.” Ziyu Ai glanced at him and gently raised his lips.

Zhishu He didn’t say anything more at the moment. He looked back at the cats, thinking that Dr. Ai could take better care of them.

He was such a man who would rather aggrieve himself than treat others badly. Once Zhishu He was treated well, he could not help but want to repay the person with much more. Ziyu Ai was very kind to him, not quite enthusiastic but considerate. But it was hard for Zhishu He to accept Dr. Ai, for he was so tired and did not have extra strength and thoughts. Zhishu He knew his illness well. Even without Wenxu Jiang, he could not spend the rest of his life with Ziyu Ai. Therefore, he could not waste Dr. Ai’s time.

Zhishu He thought for a long time before he spoke, trying to persuade Dr. Ai to change his feelings. While, Dr. Ai was just silent, which made Zhishu He angry. So Zhishu He simply talked tough.

However, as for Ziyu Ai, the refusal of Zhishu He sounded like love words. His soft and light tone not only had no deterrence or majesty, but also made Ziyu Ai want to tease him. When Zhishu He came to the hospital before, he spoke just a few short words. Ziyu Ai now found that once Zhishu He said several long sentences, the tone of Zhishu He began to change, which was a kind of soft and tender southern dialect with a special final sound.

Having seen through Zhishu that his temperament was as mild as his accent, Dr. Ai didn’t allow Zhishu He to go on his own even if he led Er Gou (the name of Dr. Ai’s dog) into the car.

Er Gou did like cats very much. As soon as he got on the car, he got excited. With his big tongue sweeping, the heads of the four cats got wet. At first, the cats were startled. Gradually, they got used to it.

Sticking out its head through the gap between the seats, Er Gou saw Zhishu He. It was so happy that it wanted a “tongue kiss” with Zhishu He, by licking his mouth with his big tongue.

Ziyu Ai reacted even faster than Zhishu He and put Er Gou at the backseat, “Your mommy is weak now. No kissing.”

Suddenly, Zhishu He’s mind went blank, with his ears reddened. He couldn’t say a word with anger.

Ziyu Ai glanced at Zhishu He and turned around to look straight at him again and simpered like a hooligan flirting with a good woman. “Are you a little girl? Why are you blushing?”

Hearing that, Zhishu He turned his face to the other side directly. It wasn’t expected that a doctor who was upright would say those words.

Ziyu Ai smiled in a muffled voice. He didn’t expect that a person like Zhishu He would be so funny, who would often be shy, blushing, and even at a loss what to say when feeling too embarrassed . The more Dr. Ai looked at Zhishu He, the more he liked.

Zhishu He was easy to get sleepy when he was in the car. Originally, he just closed his eyes and didn’t want to debate with Ziyu Ai. However, he fell asleep slowly.

When Zhishu He opened his eyes again, it was dark. Zhishu He was not quite clear-minded, sitting there straightly and dizzily.

The man next to him was still driving. Zhihu He couldn’t see the look on his face. When he looked back, Er Gou slept soundly with the cats in its arms.

“You must be tired of sitting upright all the way. I’ll take you for a walk at the next rest station.” Ziyu Ai said and turned on the radio for a very soothing piano song.

“You must be more tired than me. You’ve been driving for so long a time. We can have something to eat and have a rest later. We just go out for relax, so we don’t need to rush to get there.”

Ziyu Ai smiled and said, “Are you caring about me?”

“No one else is sitting here except you.” What Zhishu He said, which was quite normal originally, was full of special meaning now with Ziyu Ai’s explanation of the simple five words. So even Zhishu He himself felt embarrassed now, “You’d better drive well.”

Everything went smoothly with Wenxu Jiang in signing the contract. But he kept thinking about Zhishu He since he went out. He had been in a trance all day, with his heart aching dumbly. Even he just wanted to give up the contract and go home to make sure whether Zhishu He was fine.

So he returned home early in the evening and bought a lot of food. He even spared some time to ask Assistant Song to make an appointment at the jewelry store. Tomorrow, he would take Zhishu He to customize a couple of new rings. In the future, they could have a good time, accompanied by each other, rather than thinking about other trifles.

The moment Wenxu Jiang opened the door, he found it weird. The room was black and quiet. He turned on the light, only to find Zhishu He not at home.

Even the cats were gone.

If only Zhishu He wasn’t at home, Wenxu Jiang would not be so panic. He could wait for his back. Even if Zhishu He went out and messed with his friends, Wenxu Jiang could wait with a gentle attitude which he had never had before, just as Zhishu He had done for him in the countless nights. But the cats disappeared.

Wenxu Jiang knew how much Zhishu He loved those cats, so he would never give them away or abandon them.

As soon as he was thinking of all possibilities, he felt chilly all over his body. Then, he shivered while recalling the strange attitude of Zhishu He recently.

Zhishu He left.

There was no omen or foreshadowing. Zhishu He had not mentioned anything about leaving in countless quarrels or taken it as a threat even after knowing that Wenxu Jiang had other lovers.

Instead, Zhishu He was usually gentle, humble and mild, even having no complaints. But it was such a person who left silently.

Finally, Wenxu Jiang made some responses that he should have. He rushed madly into the bedroom, then the guest room, the study room, and everywhere else in the house.

There was no loss of big stuff, but Wenxu Jiang still knew that the bank card and one of Zhishu He’s favorite coats were taken away.
