Chapter 2: Li Xuan's eyes suddenly sank, "If you can't, make zero."

After the inspection, Li Xuan removes his gloves.

Su Xingchuan hurriedly straightened his clothes, the charm in the screen aside, he was still more concerned about his condition now, following Li Xuan and asking, "Is this stone of mine serious?"

"Seriously."

"Huh?" Su Xingchuan was frantic, but he couldn't help but wonder after finishing his sentence. He has always had good habits, except for the recent promotion, more socializing, work pressure, but he still maintains fitness exercise, weekday bath frequency is also very high, basically once a day in winter, in general is still very healthy.

It's not that serious.

He gazed at Li Xuan's expression and dragged a chair to sit beside Li Xuan, who typed another line on the screen.

Su Xingchuan couldn't see much and could only ask, "How serious is it?"

"Seriously."

"There's no such thing as you," Su Xingchuan grumbled, unable to do anything about it, "Tell me clearly, it's not cancerous, is it?"

Li Xuan looked solemn.

Su Xingchuan's heart thumped, "It's not really cancerous, is it?"

"Any plans to get married lately?"

"What? I-I'm getting married? Are you kidding me? I've been screwing you since I was twenty, what's the point of getting married?"

Su Xingchuan saw Li Xuan's eyelashes flutter twice.

Obviously, he's not happy with the term "getting together."

"Not necessarily." Li Xuan said in a cold voice.

"I won't harm others," Su Xingchuan grunted in a good-natured manner, "Do you think I'm as irresponsible as you are?"

Li Xuan, his expression unchanged and his back slightly straightened, asked again, "You don't want children in the future either?"

What's it got to do with the kid?

Not to mention Su Xingchuan is a gay, long ago to marry a wife and have children to pass on these nonsense behind, just the mention of the word "children", he will have to be anonymous fire.

He pampered Li Xuan like a baby, and spoiled him to no end, but what happened in the end?

Wolfish little thing.

Men, still have to love themselves, Su Xingchuan thought.

Li Xuan, however, said calmly, "Not wanting to do it now doesn't necessarily mean not wanting to do it later, and if it drags on like this, we won't have a chance later."

He said this Su Xingchuan shocked a moment, will not really have cancer, right, what bladder cancer prostate cancer vas deferens cancer ......

Su Xingchuan thought of all the male cancers he could think of, and finally even kidney cancer, his face turned white, he touched Li Xuan's hand, "What's wrong?"

"Not much, just asking."

"........."

Su Xingchuan is simply speechless.

Li Xuan told Su Xingchuan, "Inflammation is causing the stones, and surgery can be done in the near future."

"What's this about?"

"Sexual confusion, a poor diet, or stress at work, or congenital dysplasia are all possibilities."

Su Xingchuan's heart was clear.

That can only be a stressful job.

I just don't know which crime Li Xuan convicted him of.

Li Xuan turned around and asked, "Do you want surgery?"

"You do it for me?"

"Normally it's the receiving doctor, but it's not always the case, it could be a temporary switch."

"Is the surgery complicated?"

"Uncomplicated, minimally invasive."

Su Xingchuan thought for a moment, "Then do it."

Li Xuan opened the order, the printer rumbled, and told him, "Come over for surgery the day after tomorrow."

"Oh," Su Xingchuan looked at Li Xuan's cool and delicate side face, remembering the intimate contact just now, his bad thoughts steeped up, he couldn't help but ask, "Is Dr. Li single now?"

"What's it to you?"

"Of course ...... it's none of my business, the main surgeon is my ex boyfriend, not to mention that this ex boyfriend is not a peaceful break up, how terrible. I will be lying on the operating table at that time, anesthesia a hit unconscious, if you communiqué personal revenge how to do? Who will guarantee my happiness for the rest of my life, who will be responsible?"

"No, a doctor has a doctor's ethics."

Su Xingchuan suddenly hooked his lips, "You finally admit it."

Li Xuan paused, "Admit what?"

"Admitting that you're my ex-boyfriend," Su Xingchuan leaned back, leaning against the back of the chair, "acting so coldly, I thought you'd forgotten about me, it was heartless."

Li Xuan didn't want to broach the subject and signed after checking the slip, "Go pay the bill and check in."

Su Xingchuan picked up the list and looked at it.

It's really out of this world.

Li Xuan's characters are much more mature than before.

He finally began to write his name with regularity.

In the past, Li Xuan didn't like his character "暄" because he felt that he was neither soft nor sunny, which was the opposite of the name's meaning, and when he signed his name, he would intentionally write the character "日" in a vertical line. Su Xingchuan corrected him several times, telling him the disadvantages of writing this way, but Li Xuan still wouldn't listen. He nestled in Su Xingchuan's arms, staring quietly at Su Xingchuan with eyes like those of a turquoise lake. What else could Su Xingchuan say to him, he lowered his head and kissed him, and said like a fainting king: "OK, write whatever you want."

"Li Xuan." Su Xingchuan suddenly called out his name, and Li Xuan's hands suddenly stopped as he gathered his things.

"It's been a long time."

Li Xuan's reaction remained cold.

"Uh-huh." He nodded.

Su Xingchuan paid the outpatient fee and surgery fee before the clinic closed, and brought out a pile of invoices.

Looking back down the clinic hallway.

There were only a few scattered patients, and the door to Li Xuan's consulting room number three was closed.

Su Xingchuan was a bit annoyed that he forgot to add his contact information.

In fact, he remembers it, all the time, and although he deleted it all in the first place in a heartbeat, he still manages to get it out of his head when he wakes up drunk.

But remembering doesn't mean you can always add it.

The nurse asked him, "Anything else?"

Su Xingchuan smiled and said, "No."

The days of continuous rain suddenly cleared up when I came out, and the sunshine poured down on the ground, washing away all the coldness of the hospital.

Surgery is scheduled for the afternoon after tomorrow and hospitalization is tomorrow.

He goes to the parking lot to get his car, and Xie Liang's on the phone, "Wanna come out for drinks tonight?"

Xie Liang is his colleague. Both of them work in an investment company and have been partners for a long time, because of their similar interests and chatting with each other, their relationship has been good.

Su Xingchuan pulls out his seatbelt, "Drink what you want, I'm going to be hospitalized tomorrow."

"What?" Xie Liang thought she heard wrong, "What hospitalization? What happened to you?"

Su Xingchuan originally a little difficult to speak, but thinking of their own and not because of life style problems have this disease, purely work pressure, so confessed: "long a stone, no big deal, is recently with Zhongjin grinding price too tired, every day to stay up all night, tired of the disease."

"Stones where? Kidneys?"

"......" Su Xingchuan didn't say anything.

"Gallstones? Or oral?"

Xie Liang figured out a hint of something wrong in Su Xingchuan's long silence, "It's not your brother, is it?"

"Roll."

Xie Liang lets out a laugh that resonates through the car, and Su Xingchuan holds his forehead as he pulls out of the parking lot.

Xie Liang couldn't be happier: "Mr. Su, I told you long ago, brothers should be brought out more to meet people, the old do not use will be a problem, you don't believe it, and had to say what the more abstinence will be the more free, look, this is forbidden to come out of the problem, right!"

"Cut the crap."

"Which hospital? I'll accompany you tomorrow?"

"No need."

"Your parents aren't here and don't have a date, let me know before you have surgery and I'll come over and stay with you, even though it's a minor surgery, someone needs to be out there keeping watch."

Su Xingchuan wanted to refuse, but thought the same.

What if the ex-boyfriend does something to him on the operating table?

Thinking of Li Xuan, Su Xingchuan suddenly laughed softly.

Xie Liang on the other end of the line was startled, "What are you laughing at? Did you meet a pretty nurse? No, is there a male nurse?"

"There are no male nurses, there is one male doctor."

"Dude's got heavy tastes, all of a sudden you're a baldness expert, didn't you say your first love looked like a porcelain doll?"

Su Xingchuan suddenly saw Li Xuan's figure in the rearview mirror.

Li Xuan changed his white coat into a short cotton jacket, carried a black duffel bag and walked out of the hospital alone, picking one of the shared bicycles in front of the hospital and scanning the code to ride away.

Looked lonely and kind of well-behaved.

He didn't ride fast, even a bit like an old man, his back straight and steady down the hill.

Su Xingchuan kept watching, the tip of his tongue sliding over his back-slotted teeth, and an idea suddenly sprang up in his mind.

"You'll see when the time comes."

*

The next afternoon, Su Xingchuan drove to the hospital with a change of clothes and some daily necessities.

Because it was a minimally invasive procedure, the back and forth added up to less than three days.

Su Xingchuan didn't take it too seriously and didn't tell her parents.

My mother called him last night to ask how he was doing and all he said was fine, fine, just a little busy at work.

Mother grumbled, "Don't be so busy, you can't make enough money."

Su Xingchuan was born into a well-off family with two working parents, and the family was quite well-off. Su Xingchuan lived in a building when he was two years old, and when he was ten years old, his parents sold the building and bought an elevator house near the school district. The family has a suite and a car, and after his parents retired, they went out to play mahjong every day, which made their life quite comfortable.

Su Xingchuan never thought money was important when she was a child.

It was only when I met Li Xuan that I changed my mind.

Li Xuan's family is better off than his, and his food and clothing are all brand-name. Although Li Xuan has no materialistic desires and doesn't pursue a life of luxury, Su Xingchuan is always thinking, "We can't afford to lose Xuan.

The idea of saving money to make money came to him during his college days, and he worked hard for a few years and saved a lot, but like Xie Liang said - talking about the more abstinence the more freedom, and finally forbidding the problem.

Money can buy happiness, but when you lose the people who share it, you're just left running forward one way or the other, and it's too tiring.

Plus, the heart is still hung up and can't let go.

Su Xingchuan walks into the inpatient department and the nurse arranges a room for him.

Lucky for us, it's a double room.

The nurse pointed to the bed on the left and said, "Get ready, Dr. Lee will be here later."

The right side is already occupied, the stuff is there, but the people are nowhere to be found.

"Thanks." Su Xingchuan sent the ward number to Xie Liang.

Su Xingchuan put things down, not yet cleaned up, received a call from the customer, the other side is still pestering the management fee, Su Xingchuan tone of helplessness with a smile: "Mr. Xu, you also sympathize with us, the management fee down to 0.5%, we can only drink the northwest wind... ..."

After hanging up the phone, Su Xingchuan turned around and saw Li Xuan standing beside the bed in a white coat, which scared him.

"Why don't you make a sound?"

Li Xuan opens the chart and communicates with Su Xingchuan about the details of the surgery: "The surgery is scheduled for tomorrow morning at 10:30 a.m. Eight hours before the surgery, on an empty stomach, no food or drink."

"Got it."

The nurse brought the hospital gown over.

Su Xingchuan touched the fabric, which was a bit coarse, and suddenly said, "You wouldn't be able to wear a hospital gown, you must be too stiff."

Li Xuan looked over at him, the corners of his mouth turned slightly downward.

Su Xingchuan couldn't tell if the expression was upset or aggravated.

When Li Xuan was about to leave, Su Xingchuan subconsciously tried to stay and blurted out, "Doctor, are there any side effects of this surgery?"

"Side effects?"

"Like, after the surgery," Su Xingchuan glanced downward, "will it still work? Does the ability decrease?"

Li Xuan also glanced in that direction, "No."

Su Xingchuan had a bad idea again and deliberately said, "What if I can't? Does the doctor have an after-sales service? Can I try it with a doctor?"

He sits on the edge of the bed, looking leisurely at Li Xuan.

This look overlapped with seven years ago, when he also liked to tease Li Xuan like this.

Li Xuan opens her lips slightly, looking like she wants to say something.

Suddenly someone knocked on the door, Xie Liang walked in, talking to himself: "I happen to drive from this side, first come to explore the road, this room is quite spacious, and not noisy, is that downstairs that fruit store can be really pit ah, apples nine dollars eight a catty, but I still buy you."

Li Xuan looked at Xie Liang and then at Su Xingchuan.

Su Xingchuan was dumbfounded.

His "what if I can't" is still floating in the air.

Li Xuan's eyes suddenly sank as he said, "If you can't, make it zero."

"........."
