Zheng Linxu shook his head, "I came in a hurry, I forgot to bring it."
Fu Xiaozhi: "Where's your assistant? Ask him to buy it for you."
Zheng Linxu said nothing.
Fu Xiaozhi looked outside, searched around and found that his car was not outside the door: "Where is your assistant?"
Zheng Lin said: "I came to handle some personal matters, I didn't bring anyone with me."
Fu Xiaozhi: "Oh, let me order you some takeout."
She took out her mobile phone and found a nearby drugstore to buy the stomach medicine that Zheng Linxu usually took. "This money will pay back the bill you just settled."
Zheng Linxu smiled helplessly when she heard that Fu Xiaozhi understood so clearly.
But this is also in line with her temperament. For what he said in the first place, if she continues to drag her feet, she will not be Fu Xiaozhi.
After ordering the takeout, Fu Xiaozhi continued to eat, with no intention of continuing the conversation with Zheng Linxu.
The takeaway medicine arrived quickly. Zheng Linxu took it and said "thank you" to Fu Xiaozhi.
After Fu Xiaozhi drank the last sip of latte, she didn't respond to his thanks, picked up her shoulder bag and was about to leave.
When leaving, Fu Xiaozhi suddenly caught a glimpse of blood on the ground.
Her eyebrows jumped and her steps stopped.
The ground was very clean when she came just now, and the blood looked fresh.
Fu Xiaozhi turned to look at Zheng Linxu keenly: "Are you injured?"
When the distance was closer, Fu Xiaozhi saw that a piece of Zheng Linxu's windbreaker was dyed. Because it was dark gray, it was impossible to tell without staring carefully.
Fu Xiaozhi raised her hand to touch it out of habit, and sure enough she encountered blood.
Her expression was more serious than before: "I'll give you a 120."
"No need." Zheng Linxu stopped her, but his voice was so hoarse that he sounded weak.
"If it's convenient, take me back to the Prime Minister's Villa."
——
Fu Xiaozhi rode behind the taxi and stopped at the door of the Prime Minister's Villa.
After Zheng Linxu got off the car, she opened the door with her fingerprint. Fu Xiaozhi pushed the car in and the two of them walked into the room together.
Zheng Linxu took off his woolen coat after entering the living room. Underneath he was a light-colored sweater, which was half stained red by blood.
Even a brave person like Fu Xiaozhi was startled by the scene in front of her. She took a few steps forward and stared at the blood-soaked sweater, "Where are you injured? Why is there so much blood?"
Zheng Linxu: "Help me get the medical kit."
Fu Xiaozhi: "Take this shitty medical kit. If you don't go to the hospital, you're going to die. I'd better call you 120."
She said and went to get her phone again.
Zheng Linxu directly pressed her hand: "I can't go to the hospital. It's nothing serious. Just bring the medical kit."
Fu Xiaozhi's movements stopped.
His palm covered the back of her hand, the temperature and touch were familiar.
The dusty memories suddenly burst out of the ground.
For a moment, Fu Xiaozhi felt that her head was a little hot.
But the smell of blood that reached her nostrils quickly woke her up. She jerked her hand out and turned towards the opposite cabinet.
When Jiang Mingzhu lived in the Xiangfu Villa before, Fu Xiaozhi came here frequently, so she was very familiar with the arrangement of things here.
Fu Xiaozhi quickly put the medical kit on the coffee table.
After Zheng Lin said "thank you", he took off his sweater in front of Fu Xiaozhi.
Fu Xiaozhi saw the wound on his shoulder at a glance. It looked like someone had stabbed him with a knife. The wound was neither deep nor shallow, but it might have happened to hit an artery, so there was a lot of bleeding.
While Fu Xiaozhi was staring at the wound, Zheng Linxu had already opened the medical kit to deal with it.
He dealt with wounds very skillfully and looked like the kind of person who was often injured.
Within ten minutes, Zheng Linxu had bandaged the wound.
When he was cutting the medical tape at the end, it was not easy for him to move. Fu Xiaozhi subconsciously walked up to help him and cut it for him with scissors.
Zheng Linxu: "Thank you."
Fu Xiaozhi: "Are you being hunted?"
Her question may sound a bit nonsensical and rude at first, but this is indeed her usual style.
It's been a long time since I heard her speak in such a normal tone, and Zheng Linxu actually laughed unconsciously.
He said half-seriously, "You can also say, why don't you run away first? It won't be good if they come and harm you later."
Fu Xiaozhi snorted, "Are you kidding yourself? Who has the guts to hunt you down?"
She didn't take Zheng Linsu's words seriously, she just thought that he was unwilling to tell her the truth and found any excuse to get over it.
Zheng Linxu didn't want to say it, so Fu Xiaozhi naturally wouldn't bother asking, "Then I'll ask Zhuzhu to come find you."
With their current relationship, it would be inconvenient for her to continue to stay here.
"No need." Zheng Linxu interrupted Fu Xiaozhi, "Don't let anyone know that I'm in Beicheng."
Fu Xiaozhi: "..."
When Zheng Linxu said this, she really felt that he was being hunted.
Before Fu Xiaozhi had time to ask, Zheng Linxu's cell phone rang.
He got up and walked to the balcony to answer the phone, as if he was afraid of being overheard.
Fu Xiaozhi didn't bother to listen. She stood there with her arms folded and waited for a few minutes. Zheng Lin narrated it quite quickly.
After Zheng Lin told her story, she told Fu Xiaozhi again: "Don't mention to Zhuzhu that you have seen me."
Fu Xiaozhi: "Oh, I got it."
She looked him up and down, "But this is the New Year, do you plan to stay here alone?"
Zheng Linxu was noncommittal.
Fu Xiaozhi originally wanted to ask him a few questions, but seeing Zheng Linxu's attitude, she felt it was unnecessary. She had already helped him enough today.
"Then I'm leaving." Fu Xiaozhi waved his hand.
Zheng Lin said: "Happy Spring Festival."
Fu Xiaozhi: "Oh."
Zheng Lin said: "Didn't Jin Yangshen accompany you to celebrate the New Year?"
Fu Xiaozhi: "He went with his parents."
Zheng Lin said: "I thought you would spend time together."
Fu Xiaozhi couldn't understand his motive for saying this, but just smiled lightly and said, "There will be many opportunities to spend together in the future."
Both of them understood what this meant.
Zheng Linxu: "Are you getting married?"
Fu Xiaozhi: "Does it have anything to do with you?"
Zheng Lin said: "Be careful on the road."
Fu Xiaozhi slammed the door and left. From the sound of her closing the door, it could be heard that she was very angry.
Zheng Linxu saw Fu Xiaozhi riding away through the floor-to-ceiling window of the living room, and did not look back for a long time.
Until the phone rings again.
After Zheng Linxu saw the words "Ji Jingxi" on the screen, she pressed the answer button and put it to her ear.
"I'm here." Ji Jingxi's voice sounded urgent, "Where are you injured? Those damn lackeys of the Wen family must have lost their minds and gone crazy!"
Zheng Lin said: "It's okay, it's a minor injury. Thank you for your hard work."
Ji Jingxi: "I've left the airport. Are you still at the coffee shop? I'll pick him up -"
Zheng Lin said: "No, you come directly to the Prime Minister's Villa."
Before Ji Jingxi could ask Zheng Linxu how he got there, Zheng Linxu had already hung up the phone.

After Fu Xiaozhi came out of the Prime Minister's Villa, she had been absent-minded while riding her bike.
