Chapter 39 Gu Congzhou is sick
Chi Ye's heart skipped a beat, and he couldn't help taking a step back. Just hearing the voice, he could tell that Gu Congzhou had lost his temper.
Throwing things on the carpet can still make such a big movement, which shows how hard it is to smash things.
But at this point in time, who made Gu Congzhou angry?
Chi Ye was about to go up to see the situation, when Chef Feng's voice called him eagerly behind him, "Mr. Xiaochi, don't go up."
Chi Ye stopped, followed the sound and turned his head back to the right. He saw Chef Feng protruding half of his body from the kitchen far away, saw him turn around, and repeated, "Don't go up at this time."
Chi Ye walked back a few steps and asked in confusion, "What happened upstairs?"
Chef Feng seemed hesitant to speak, and after a while, he lowered his voice and said, "Today is the death day of the young master's mother. The young master's grandfather and cousin came over just now, and they are upstairs now. They seem to be arguing... Hey, you Just don't go up."
Chi Ye was startled, and then remembered that Gu Congzhou's mother had indeed died in winter.
No wonder Gu Congzhou, who recently regarded the company as his home, came back early today.
The relationship between Gu Congzhou and his grandfather is very tense, which can be seen from Chi Ye's last meeting, saying that they are relatives to his grandson, but the relationship between Tao Shiqi and Gu Congzhou is not as good as that of strangers.
And Gu Congzhou's mother, Tao Mengjia, is the biggest minefield between the two.
A bad premonition crossed Chi Ye's heart.
I don't know what Gu Congzhou and Tao Shiqi were arguing about, but such a day is not a good thing.
"Mr. Koike?"
Seeing Chi Ye standing there in a daze, Chef Feng called him.
Chi Ye looked up hesitantly towards the faintly lighted stairs. In this case, it would be better not to get involved...
But as soon as he took a step back, he heard a crisp sound of "crash", like the sound of a fragile object hitting the wall.
It made people's hearts jump.
Chi Ye was even more hesitant about going up or not.
"I'm leaving first, Mr. Xiaochi, you should avoid the limelight first."
After saying this, Chef Feng stopped meddling in other people's business, and he disappeared quickly.
Chi Ye stood in the living room, looked upstairs and then turned to look in the direction where Chef Feng disappeared, not knowing where to go for a moment.
But then it occurred to him that he would always go back to his room to sleep at night. His pajamas, toiletries, everything was in Gu Congzhou's room, and he had no other place to go.
How about going up now to have a look, and to put out the fire and appease Gu Congzhou.
In terms of getting along with each other in the past few months, although Gu Congzhou is sometimes fierce and cold, he is not to the point of cannibalism.
Moreover, he and Gu Congzhou are obviously married. When his grandfather and uncle are here, he should go up and have a look.
Chi Ye silently made a whole set of psychological construction for himself, and walked up the stairs.
Only halfway through, I heard some low-pitched, angry, and sharp words coming from upstairs intermittently, "I knew you were just like your father..."
"You're a lunatic..."
"No wonder everyone is afraid of you, even your relatives... Even if Mengjia is still alive, they dare not approach you."
"Gu Congzhou, are you crazy? You... what do you want to do?"
It was the voice of Gu Congzhou's cousin Tao Weidong, with a sharp tone, and every word he said was heartbreaking.
Chi Ye tightened his grip on the handrail of the stairs.
At the same time, it was Butler Fang who shouted in surprise and panic, "Master, be careful, your hands...I'll go to Doctor Zhou right away."
Followed by a burst of panic footsteps.
Gu Congzhou was injured?
Chi Ye's heart tightened, and he quickened his pace and ran to Gu Congzhou's study.
As soon as he arrived at the door, he bumped into Butler Fang who ran out in a hurry. Under the dim light in the corridor, he could still see the anxious expression on the butler's face.
Chi Ye quickly asked, "Uncle Fang, what's wrong with Young Master Gu? Injured? Need a doctor? I'll go."
"Oh, yes, the young master scratched his hand."
Steward Fang looked anxious. He glanced at Chi Ye and grabbed Chi Ye's hand, "I'll find the doctor, you go in first. There is a medicine box on the bottom floor of the bedroom drawer, which contains Yunnan Baiyao and bandages. You can bring them first." Stop the bleeding for the young master."
"Row."
Chi Ye ran into the bedroom and hurriedly found the medicine box.
The door of the study room was ajar, and the fragments of porcelain reflected the dazzling light.
Gu Congzhou sat behind the desk as usual, with his right hand hanging to one side, and the blood flowed down his palm and dripped onto the carpet.
But his expression was the same as usual, and the eyes behind the gold-rimmed glasses were even calmer and indifferent than usual.
Across the desk, Tao Shiqi was sitting opposite.
In front of Tao Shiqi was a leather briefcase with a lock.
From Chi Ye's perspective, only Tao Shiqi's back can be seen, but Tao Shiqi's indifference can also be seen from the back, as if the person sitting in front of him is just a business partner, and he doesn't show any concern for the wound on Gu Congzhou's hand.
Standing next to Tao Shiqi was Tao Weidong. Among the three, judging from his posture and expression, Tao Weidong lost his composure the most.
Even the fake smile that was always on his face in the past disappeared completely, and anger and fear were mixed in his eyes.
Chi Ye's eyes fell on Gu Congzhou's hand.
He bypassed the tiles on the ground, walked quickly to Gu Congzhou's side, squatted down, opened the medicine box, took out a can of Yunnan Baiyao powder from it, and then held Gu Congzhou's right hand scratched by the tiles, "Don't you Move, I'll help you stop the bleeding first. Uncle Fang has gone to the doctor."
The wound was deep, and it should have been cut with a blunt instrument. It was bloody and scary.
In particular, Gu Congzhou's own hands were very slender and fair, which made the blood red even more.
Chi Ye's hands trembled a little, he took a breath, stabilized himself, and sprinkled the powder on it lightly.
Gu Congzhou just glanced at Chi Ye when he came in at the very beginning, and then sat there motionless, allowing Chi Ye to apply medicine to his palm, neither expressing surprise at Chi Ye's appearance nor the severity of his wound. Show the slightest pain.
"Gu..."
Seeing this situation, Tao Weidong wanted to say something more, but Tao Shiqi stretched out his hand to stop him.
Tao Shiqi just glanced at Chi Ye lightly, as if he saw this person, but also didn't seem to see him, he pushed the briefcase in front of Gu Congzhou's direction, "This is part of what Mengjia left for you. She left I will give you other things in accordance with her will in the future."
Gu Congzhou glanced lightly from the briefcase.
Tao Shiqi said in an old voice unhurriedly, "Don't abuse your power, don't forget, half of it was given to you by the Tao family."
Hearing this, Gu Congzhou's thin lips were pursed together, and the corners of his mouth were raised, drawing a mocking arc, "Of course, I will keep in mind what grandpa and uncle said tonight."
He looked at Tao Shiqi, and Tao Shiqi also looked at him. The grandfather and grandson exchanged an inexplicable look. Gu Congzhou said, "With me here, the Tao family will be fine."
"Really? That's fine."
Tao Shiqi nodded slightly, no emotion could be seen in his cloudy and drooping eyes.
After a long while, he stood up slowly with the support of the chair, turned around and walked out.
Seeing Tao Shiqi leaving just like that, Tao Weidong subconsciously wanted to follow, but he was unwilling to do so. After walking a few steps, he stopped again, turned his head and looked at Gu Congzhou fiercely, as if he wanted to say something.
At this time, Chi Ye raised his head and said coldly, "Uncle, I won't see you off."
Although he didn't know what the three of them were talking about, he was on Gu Congzhou's side in this matter.
First of all, Gu Congzhou is his boss.
Secondly, it is wrong for the opponent to bully the few with more.
Again, on a day like today, knowing that Gu Congzhou is sick, but still running to provoke him, how can there be such relatives.
He felt a little wronged for Gu Congzhou.
Tao Weidong's eyes swept over the silent Gu Congzhou and Chi Ye who was hostile to him in turn, and then, barely regaining a little of his former demeanor, he followed Tao Shiqi out.
The two had just left, and not long after, there was the sound of a car coming downstairs.
Soon, Steward Fang came in with the doctor and nurse.
During this period, Chi Ye had been tossing about Gu Congzhou's wound.
He hadn't looked at Gu Congzhou's palm seriously before, but when he looked at it now, he realized that there were not only new wounds, but also old wounds, layered on top of each other, and he didn't know how many times it had been scratched.
Chi Ye gasped. He knew that Gu Congzhou was sick, but he had never seen Gu Congzhou get sick.
He shook the bottle in his hand and sprinkled the powder more carefully, trying to staunch the blood.
It was only when the doctor came that the bleeding stopped a little bit.
Chi Ye was bandaging the wound, when he heard the door opening and footsteps entering, he quickly backed away and let the doctor take over.
Gu Congzhou, on the other hand, maintained an almost oppressive silence from beginning to end, turning a blind eye to Chi Ye and the doctor, and seemed to feel no pain from his wound.
This state is obviously very abnormal.
Chi Ye felt strange and looked at Gu Congzhou uneasily, but the doctor seemed to be used to this situation. After carefully observing Gu Congzhou's wound, he said calmly, "Young Master Gu, the wound needs stitches and local anesthetic."
Only then did Gu Congzhou coldly refuse, "No need."
The doctor advised, "It will be very painful without anesthesia."
Gu Congzhou repeated, "No need."
The doctor paused for a while, and while continuing to move his hands, he asked, "Can you tell me about your recent medication?"
……
Doctors need a quiet environment for diagnosis and treatment.
Chi Ye was very worried about Gu Congzhou's state, so he and Butler Fang stood guard outside the door.
The night was getting darker.
The noisy background sound of the city gradually faded away, only the fierce north wind beating against the windows at night in winter.
A few lights downstairs were dimmed, and the whole Gu residence became deserted.
It was past one o'clock in the morning when Dr. Zhou left.
Ikeha was very sleepy, but he didn't dare to sleep. Although the days of training made him feel tired, the winter night was also very cold.
But after the doctor left, Gu Congzhou locked himself in the study and did not come out.
Chi Ye was worried about Gu Congzhou's accident, and promised Fang Butler to watch over Gu Congzhou at night, so he sat on the small sofa and watched the situation inside.
The study room was unusually quiet, there was no movement at all, but this quietness was even more disturbing.
Chi Ye had to stick to the door and listen.
Since he transmigrated into this world and met Gu Congzhou, except for the first night, Gu Congzhou behaved quite normally, even if his temper and personality were not good, most of the time he was like a normal person, so much so that he almost forgot that Gu Congzhou's design How miserable it must be, how extreme the character is.
While he was worried about what Gu Congzhou would do, he couldn't help but sympathize with his boss.
Born in such a family, he felt that Gu Congzhou's growth into what he is now is already very good.
He thought of Tao Weidong's words again, if his mother Tao Mengjia was still around, no one would say that about Gu Congzhou.
"Gu Congzhou, what are you doing?"
Chi Ye leaned on the door panel and gently knocked on the door, "Don't be too hard on it, let me talk to you."
"You...have you had dinner? Shall I bring you something to eat?"
"The doctor said you can't use your right hand, so don't move around."
"I'm going to the final the night after tomorrow. I wanted to ask you if you would come this time, but there will be no performance stage after that. But now you should take good care of your injuries."
"Gu Congzhou? The doctor said you need to rest more, come out and sleep. If you don't want to sleep with me, I'll go to the next room to sleep."
Chi Ye talked too much, finally Gu Congzhou's impatient voice came from the study, "Shut up, be quiet."
Chi Ye stopped talking.
After a while, I said to myself, "Then let me play the piano for you. Which one do you want to hear?"
Chi Ye walked to the side of the piano, opened the cover of the piano, put his fingers on the black and white keyboard, and pressed a few keys at will.
After thinking about it, he lightly played the "Serenade" that Gu Congzhou asked him to play when they first met.
——When Gu Congzhou opened the study door and came out, it was already past seven in the morning, and the music of the piano had just stopped.
As soon as he came out, he saw Chi Ye lying asleep beside the piano.
Chi Ye was arched, with his head resting on one arm, and he seemed to be sleeping deeply and barely.
Gu Congzhou took a few steps forward.
In the early morning light of winter, there is misty mist outside.
Chi Ye's hair hangs neatly below his ears, and he hasn't cut it short for a while for the convenience of styling during the performance.
Gu Congzhou approached and looked down at Chi Ye with cold and deep eyes.
Chi Ye played the piano for him all night last night...
Now Chi Ye was asleep, his fingers curled up beside him, trembling slightly from exhaustion.
Gu Congzhou looked at it for a while, then silently pulled up Chi Ye's right hand, and pressed his thumb on the knuckle of the little finger of Chi Ye's right hand.
Chi Ye's fingers were hot, beautiful, slender and long, but not thin.
Gu Congzhou put on a little strength.
Chi Ye was woken up.
It took him a while to wake up, his head was a little dizzy, and he didn't know whether it was from a severe lack of sleep or from sleeping on his stomach.
But when he saw Gu Congzhou coming out, his eyes still lit up. He sneezed, looked up at Gu Congzhou, and asked softly, "Are you coming out? Are you feeling better?"
Gu Congzhou's expression moved.
