Chapter 273 Should You Protect Yourself Or Protect Me ([-])
At seven o'clock, Xiao Cai was on duty in the morning shift for routine ward rounds. When he passed the door of Ward 201, he found that the room was lit.

He walked a few steps through the door and suddenly felt strange.I remembered that Mei Xue lived in this ward last night, shouldn't Mei Xue be in her cousin's room upstairs?Now this ward should be empty, how could the lights be on?The more I thought about it, the more I realized that something was wrong, and I took a few steps back, only to bump into Dr. Lu who was coming out of the ward!
"Brother Mengmei?" Xiao Cai exclaimed.

The two looked at each other in surprise!

Xiao Cai said suspiciously: "No, why are you sleeping here, cousin? You shouldn't."

"Shouldn't I be with your sister Mei?" Dr. Lu interrupted Xiao Cai to finish his question before he finished asking.The hand that just came out to close the door pushed open the door of the ward, turned around and walked in.

Xiao Cai followed into the ward naturally, closed the door and asked, "Is that Sister Mei?"

"No!" Before Xiao Cai could finish asking, Doctor Lu interrupted him again.After a moment of silence, he continued: "She's a patient! I didn't come down until she fell asleep." In the end, Dr. Lu's voice was so soft that only he could hear him clearly.

He only went to sleep in the morning, but to be honest, his behavior was a bit self-deprecating!He didn't want to cover up anything, he just wanted to maintain Mei Xue's perfect image.

Mei Xue was admitted as a patient, but from the moment she woke up last night, she was no longer a patient in this orthopedic hospital.Or Dr. Lu asked Xiao Cai to send her to his room, so he didn't treat her as a patient in his heart!

Xiao Cai probably understood what was going on. He sat down on the hospital bed discouraged, squinted at Dr. Lu and said, "She is like a little pony wandering by the shallow river and dare not cross the river. Why don't you push her away?" Put? Let her know that it's not that difficult to cross the water!"

Dr. Lu snorted coldly with disdain: "You know what a fart! If I push her while she is standing by the river and hesitates, then her original position of taking the initiative will become passive. If she is not ready to push, she will Choking water!"

Xiao Cai: "Then..."

"Be the master!" Seeing that Xiao Cai wanted to refute, Dr. Lu quickly stopped him.Said: "Don't lie to the world, even if no one knows what actually exists and what happened, she can't be confident when she has to face the problem."

Xiao Cai turned her head, grinning and scratching her hair vigorously.He is really worried for his cousin who is so elm lumpy in his studies.After a long while, he said helplessly, "She's already sleeping on your bed. You and her are now going out to hang a sign around your neck, saying that you have nothing to do with each other and that nothing happened. Except you, who would believe it? No ghost would believe it!"

Dr. Lu said: "Just let it be! Why did you put up a sign to clarify? Isn't there no silver here? They are as stupid as you!"

...

The two were relatively silent.After a while, Doctor Lu said: "Forget it, I can't tell you clearly, I'll go up and have a look!"

Mei Xue slept until dawn, and when she opened her eyes, warm sunlight had penetrated the beige curtains.She suddenly remembered what happened last night, and turned around suddenly to find that she was alone in Nuo Da's bed.Last night, the picture of her asking Dr. Lu to sleep with her suddenly surfaced, which immediately made her feel ashamed and indignant.

In an instant, her heart sank to the bottom of the sea like a stone.

She used to think that Dr. Lu's kindness to her was ultimately due to some affection between men and women, but when she humbly pushed herself into his arms last night, Dr. Lu was more helpless and didn't know what to say. of rejection.

A deep sting in her heart tormented her after being rejected and ridiculed.She was so ashamed that she began to despise and despise herself.The sudden strong disgust for herself made her want to escape.She temporarily forgot the fear of domestic violence, and took the familiar place where there was no storm as the only place she could live.

Prompted by her annoyance over last night, Mei Xue threw off the quilt and got up, washed up in a hurry, packed her things and prepared to go home!
Dr. Lu went upstairs, thinking that Mei Xue was still sleeping, so he gently opened the door.Although he didn't take what Xiao Cai said just now, it was actually not unreasonable.He wanted to say no more to cover up, let things take their course, who would have thought that when he opened the door, he would see the back figure bending over to pack his clothes in front of the window.

Dr. Lu was taken aback, then smiled and said, "You're up!"

Mei Xue straightened up abruptly, and turned to look at Dr. Lu in horror.Until Dr. Lu closed the door and came to her, she turned around in an evasive manner, bent down and continued to zip up the suitcase, saying, "Well, I... have to go back!"

"..." Doctor Lu stopped and settled on the ground, feeling a deep pain in his heart.Looking at Mei Xue's back, he said: "Just now... I was afraid that others would gossip about you..."

For some reason, Dr. Lu couldn't be confident when facing Mei Xue.Even if he is superfluous to cover up, apart from making himself clear, can he really stop others from gossiping?
Mei Xue turned around straight, thinking: "Are you afraid that others will gossip about me? Or to protect yourself from others poking your spine!" The corners of her mouth slightly raised, but her eyes were sad and bitter, and she said: "Thank you, Dean Lu, for taking me in. It’s my gaffe that disturbed you late! I’ll settle the medical bills later!”

Mei Xue's attitude was suddenly distant and polite, looking at Dr. Lu with lowered eyelashes, showing an indifference of repulsiveness.Although she tried her best to cover up, there was a hint of desolation in her tone.The unrevealed loneliness made Dr. Lu, the instigator, feel extremely guilty.
