When the two really broke up, Qin Chuan realized that facing it wasn't an easy thing. This matter made Qin Chuan very low. Although he had long realized that the two of them would find it hard to be together in the end, when truly facing the end of their relationship, his heart still felt empty.
Lü Shulei had already returned to Tanshan City. Qin Chuan returned to Tanshan alone. Back in this familiar place, everything seemed much quieter. Qin Chuan's face was not good when he got home.
"Xiao Chuan, have you eaten?" Qin Chuan's mother saw her son come in and immediately asked with concern.
Qin Chuan did not answer, quietly returned to his room, and then closed the door.
"What's wrong with this child? He didn't say a word. Didn't he go to the Xingsha gathering today? Why is he like this?" Qin Chuan's mother was very puzzled. She wanted to push open Qin Chuan's door to ask what was going on, but found that the door was already tightly locked.
"Old Qin, what's wrong with our son?" Qin Chuan's mother turned to ask Old Qin, who was looking at a chess manual.
Old Qin waved his hand at Qin Chuan's mother.
Qin Chuan's mother walked up to Old Qin. "What's going on?"
"The child is growing up and has his own secrets. Don't bother him. He can solve it himself. We can't manage his life forever." Old Qin said.
"It looks like it's a matter of the heart. Sigh, it's really worrying." Qin Chuan's mother couldn't bear to see Qin Chuan unhappy.
"It's fine. Let him think it through. Once he figures it out, it will be fine. After experiencing things, he will grow up." Old Qin continued to play with his chess.
"What's the use of fiddling with this thing? You don't care about the child's affairs at all. Is he really your biological son?" Qin Chuan's mother was dissatisfied with Old Qin's attitude.
"Hey, isn't he my biological son? Don't you know that best?" Old Qin teased.
"You old devil, you dare to say that? I'll give you a good beating today!" Qin Chuan's mother immediately exploded.
Old Qin quickly begged for mercy: "No, no, no, Xiao Chuan is at home. If he sees, how will I feel?"
"You won't get away with this today. I'll throw all your junk to the recycling station." Qin Chuan's mother naturally aimed to hit where it hurt.
"Don't. If you break them, you'll have to spend money to buy new ones." Old Qin quickly pointed out the key factor.
Qin Chuan's mother picked up something but didn't want to throw it away, so she put it down and picked up another. She realized that not only did Old Qin treasure these things, but she herself also treasured them. After a while, Old Qin was quite amused.
"Woman, just throw something to vent your anger." Old Qin casually picked something and put it in Qin Chuan's mother's hand.
Qin Chuan's mother was amused by her husband and chuckled, saying, "You old rogue."
"When we were young, we were too serious, which caused problems. If we had had a child earlier, we might have given Xiao Chuan a brother or sister." Old Qin said.
"Actually, this is not bad. Otherwise, how could we have Xiao Chuan? We are destined to be a family." Qin Chuan's mother felt very happy.
Old Qin took Duofu out and walked out the door. Old Liu greeted him from a distance.
"Old Qin, you really have a good son."
"That's not me who gave birth. I don't have that function. But there is one thing that's true: the seed is good." Old Qin joked.
"Did you watch TV?" Old Liu asked.
"Watch TV? What TV? I was studying chess manuals at home. I was preparing to come and beat you a few times in the afternoon." Old Qin said.
"Your son is on TV again. This morning, a major traffic accident happened in Xingsha. Your son was right there and saved many people." Old Liu said.
"Oh, oh!" Old Qin slapped his thigh and ran back home.
"Why are you running? It will be replayed in the evening." Old Liu knew what Old Qin was going to do.
"You told me this news, how can I stay outside?" Old Qin naturally rushed back, turned on the TV, and waited. He naturally hoped his son would appear more on TV.
Qin Chuan lay on the bed, staring straight at the ceiling. Qin Chuan entered the [Genius Doctor] space. Qin Chuan directly entered the [Medical Foundation System] simulation classroom to start learning. He used continuous learning to forget his pain. He kept learning until he was very tired, and the system automatically logged him out. He then fell into a deep sleep on the bed. Sleep is the best way to recover. When his stomach was growling, Qin Chuan got up from the bed, walked out of the room, and saw that it was already evening. Old Qin and Qin Chuan's mother were both elderly and had already gone to bed.
He tiptoed to the door, changed into a pair of shoes, and went out.
As soon as the security door closed, Qin Chuan's parents' room door opened. Qin Chuan's mother walked to the living room, looked around, and then returned to the room.
"So late and still going out. This child." Qin Chuan's mother said softly when she returned to the room.
"He might be hungry and went out to eat. It's fine, it shows the child is recovering." Old Qin was always very confident in his son.
When Qin Chuan went downstairs, he heard a bark from the storage room. He knew Duofu had heard the noise and was barking. Although he hadn't taken care of Duofu after saving him, Duofu still liked to stick to Qin Chuan. As soon as he saw Qin Chuan, he ran over happily. Even Old Qin, who had been taking care of him, didn't get this treatment. Qin Chuan's mother often praised this dog, saying it was a good dog. It knew who had saved its life.
There were no night food stalls in this old neighborhood. Most of the people living in these old houses were elderly and didn't go out to eat at night. So the streets were dark and empty at night, with no one around. He had to go to the Jijian Street area, where the night market was lively, with people coming and going, almost as busy as during the day. The night food stalls were also packed. Qin Chuan was familiar with this area because it was not far from the central hospital. Sometimes, when he was on night duty and hungry, he would come here to buy night food.
People who came out to eat night food generally had a herd mentality. They would look for the stall with the most people, subconsciously thinking it had the best food. Thus, the more crowded stalls attracted even more people. In fact, the taste of night food was not as important as the atmosphere.
Qin Chuan ordered a few skewers and a bottle of beer, then found an empty seat and sat down.
The surrounding seats were all full. People who knew each other would call out loudly, while strangers would not interfere with each other. Qin Chuan looked around but didn't see anyone from the emergency department.
Next to him were two men who looked fierce and not very friendly. Most people didn't dare to sit near them. They had a long object wrapped in clothes next to them and were both bare-chested, with very fierce-looking tattoos.
"What did they say?"
"The woman is on night duty today. We'll do the job, get the money, and leave. We don't need to worry about the other side."
"There are many surveillance cameras inside. Going in like this will attract attention. We'll pretend to be injured from a fight, with our heads wrapped in clothes. This way, we can avoid the cameras. The woman is on night duty, so we'll take action when she comes to check. We'll be quick and clean, and leave after we get what we want."
Qin Chuan was initially indifferent to the conversation of the two men, but when he heard some information, he was suddenly startled. He suddenly remembered that Gao Zhanting was on night duty. Thinking about Gao Zhanting and Jia Chunpeng, he suspected that these two men might have been hired by Jia Chunpeng.
Hearing this, Qin Chuan remained calm. He had only had a little alcohol and some food at Xingsha, and his stomach was still empty. He needed to eat something to fill his stomach, or he would lack strength if he had to act.
The two men glanced at Qin Chuan, but he pretended to be focused on the skewers, impatiently urging, "Boss, are they ready? Hurry up. I've been on night duty all night and my stomach is empty."
The two men relaxed and looked away.
"This is not the place to talk. We'll follow the plan. Once it's done, the money will be transferred to our accounts. If we do this well, we won't have to live such a dangerous life anymore."
Although they spoke in low voices, Qin Chuan's ears were very sensitive. He heard every word they said clearly.
After Qin Chuan urged, the skewers were quickly brought over. He wolfed down the food, worried that the two men might leave at any time. He quickly finished his night food and ordered some to take away.
When Qin Chuan paid, the two men were still eating. To avoid drawing their attention, he deliberately left in another direction and then called a taxi to go to the central hospital.
"Qin Chuan, why did you come here?" Gao Zhanting and He Xiaokang, who were on night duty, were surprised to see Qin Chuan.
"I was having night food with a friend just now, and it tasted good, so I brought some for you. Consider yourselves lucky." Qin Chuan smiled.
"That's great. I'm just hungry. I didn't have much appetite in the afternoon, so I was about to go and make a bowl of instant noodles. I don't need to do that now. That stuff is okay to eat occasionally, but if you eat it too much, the smell makes you want to vomit." He Xiaokang said.
"Xiaokang, where do you and Fang Ping plan to go for the holiday?" Qin Chuan asked.
"What's there to do during the National Day holiday? With our limited leave, we can't even handle the traffic. Oh, by the way, you really made a name for yourself today. It was on the news. It looks like you'll be the model worker of the hospital this year." He Xiaokang said.
"Today was really dangerous. If our bus had been a bit faster, I might not have been able to come and bring you food." Qin Chuan said.
