Apex Predator - Chap 87
Shen Dai received a call from Shen Qin when he was about to get off work. It was from his grandma’s mobile phone, saying that grandma was not well today and was in the hospital. Shen Dai hurried over.
Shen Qin knew that he was wrong, and when he saw Shen Dai, he cringed a little.
This was the first time the two met face to face in more than a year, but Shen Dai had no time to criticize him, so he went to see a doctor first.
The doctor said that the chemotherapy after the operation was effective at the beginning, but now new lesions have appeared. After all, the old man is over 70, and his health will only deteriorate. In the future, surgery is not recommended. Instead, he should be hospitalized for a period of time and be conservative. Treatment focuses on minimizing pain.
Although the doctor didn’t say some words directly, everyone could understand what they meant. Shen Dai felt very sad, but also very calm. Since the day his grandmother was diagnosed with stomach cancer, these years of treatment have also paved the way for Shen Dai’s psychology. Without Qu Moyu’s help, perhaps his grandmother would not be able to survive the operation. Already ready to accept any ending at any time.
After communicating with the doctor about the treatment plan, Shen Dai and Shen Qin walked out according to the information.
Shen Qin silently wiped his tears: “Adai, what should I do.”
“Cooperate with the doctor.” Shen Dai quickly calculated how much money would be spent in his mind, how to adjust the monthly expenditure ratio, and now he had to use the emergency reserve Jin, I don’t know how long I will stay in the hospital. If the follow-up expenses increase, I can only sell the house.
“I’m really scared. Your grandma’s spirit is getting worse and worse recently.”
“Grandma has been ill for many years, and this day will come sooner or later.” Shen Dai gave Shen Qin a cold look, and said goodbye open face. Sometimes when he sees other people’s fathers being kind and filial, he envies and feels incredible at the same time, why other people’s fathers can support their children, while his father is selfish, weak, greedy and stupid. If it weren’t for Shen Qin, grandma and grandpa might not get sick, at least not so early, and his life shouldn’t have been like this. He didn’t have to agree to a marriage agreement for money, and he didn’t have to fall into the quagmire he couldn’t break out of.
Shen Dai walked to the door of the ward, saw his grandma lying on the bed weakly, stood outside the door for more than ten seconds, not daring to go in. He thought he had made enough mental preparations, but seeing his closest relatives step by step towards parting, he still felt sad at this moment.
Shen Qin said in a low voice: “There are six people in this ward. The environment is too bad. Let’s change to a
single ward.” It costs tens of thousands. If you really want to be hospitalized for a long time, you can only sell the house, but if you sell the house, where will grandma live if she is discharged from the hospital.
Shen Qin glanced at Shen Dai cautiously: “You have already given birth to an alpha for the Qu family, this little money…”
Shen Dai glared at Shen Qin viciously: “How do you know?”
Shen Qin’s eyes flickered: “No Grandma told me, and I can guess it myself, you disappeared for more than a year, this is the right time to have a baby…” He paused, “After I hired a nanny, I checked the surveillance at home and saw you and your baby It’s gone.”
Shen Dai also knew that he couldn’t hide it from Shen Qin for a long time, but he was still like a cat with a frown, wholeheartedly guarding against the possibility that Shen Qin might come to harm his child.
“Adai, since you have a child, you can understand the difficulties your father faced back then.”
Shen Dai looked at Shen Qin indifferently: “I did make the same choice as you did back then, but our goals are different. I won’t take my child to the door to ask for money, and if I was kicked out, I would say that I shouldn’t have given birth to him.”
Shen Qin’s face turned pale in an instant, and he became angry for a while: “You really think you are better than me? You Give birth to this child and do nothing? If that’s the case, then you are stupider than me!”
Shen Dai’s eyes turned red with anger.
The nurse came in with the medicine, and scolded: “What’s the noise, this is a hospital!”
Shen Dai stopped looking at Shen Qin, entered the ward, and walked to grandma’s bedside.
Grandma fell asleep, and he held her hand and remained silent for a long time.
After a while, Shen Qin whispered: “No matter what, your grandma’s illness is more important. I, I don’t have much money. Didn’t I go on a trip a while ago and bought some things. I can pay for the basic expenses of the family. Treatment is just…”
There were people walking and talking in the ward from time to time, the old man in the next bed was sobbing uncomfortably, Shen Dai took a deep breath, and said tiredly: “Change the ward, first change to a double room.” On the way back, Shen Dai
felt Feeling weak, he took out the nutrient solution from his bag and drank a tube.
Before the estrus period, in order to empty the genital cavity, there will be no appetite for about a week, and you can only eat and drink a small amount, and supplement it to maintain the basic consumption of the body. It’s okay to go to work normally under such circumstances, it’s nothing more than poor mental and physical fitness. If you encounter something that makes you anxious, this feeling of weakness will be exacerbated.
Thinking of all the pressures he was facing, Shen Dai felt out of breath. Regarding the upcoming estrus period, he has already temporarily arranged it. In the next two days, he plans to take Qiuqiu away from Qu’s house on the grounds of visiting his grandmother. He will spend this estrus period at Cheng Zimei’s house. Cheng Zimei To go to work, to attend academic exchanges, to give speeches and receptions, he must leave early and return late, so Xiaodie will take care of him and Qiuqiu.
However, today his grandma was hospitalized, and he had another headache. This estrus period came at an extremely untimely time, which made him very anxious.
When he returned to Qu’s house, it was past nine o’clock. During this period, Qu Moyu called. He only said that he went to see his grandma, but didn’t mention anything else. Unexpectedly, when he entered the door, he found Qu Moyu sitting on the sofa in the living room reading a book , as if waiting for myself.
Qu Moyu stood up when he saw him: “I came back so late, have you eaten yet
?
” Shen Dai upstairs, “He is asleep now, don’t go.”
Shen Dai lowered his head wearily.
“You look tired.” Qu Moyu walked up to Shen Dai and patted his head, “What’s the matter, how is grandma?”
Shen Dai nodded, and didn’t want to say more: “I’m going to rest.”
Shen Dai wanted to see Qiuqiu, but was afraid of waking the child, so he had to give up. He went back to his room, took a quick shower, and threw himself on the bed, not wanting to move.
Qu Moyu opened the door and came in. He sat on the head of the bed, looked at Shen Dai whose back was facing him, and really wanted to pull him into his arms, but he didn’t dare. He slept on the same bed with Shen Dai every day, but He can’t do anything, he is constantly approaching the limit of his endurance, just a little spark can ignite him.
He adjusted his breathing evenly, and suppressed the growing urge: “How is grandma?”
“It’s okay.” Shen Dai said softly.
“Tell me if you need anything.”
Shen Dai was silent for a while, and said, “Grandma’s birthday is next week, and I want to take Qiuqiu back to stay for two days. She misses Qiuqiu very much.”
Qu Moyu stared at Shen Dai’s On the back of the neck, there was a scar on the gland covered by the stubble, his eyes became deep, and he said, “Okay.” The voice could not hear the emotion, “I will prepare a birthday gift for grandma.” “No need.”
Shen Dai turned around. He realized that his reaction was a little big, and immediately pretended to be calm and said, “I don’t want grandma to know these things, and I don’t want her to worry about me.
” I won’t worry about you.”
Shen Dai said in a low voice: “I will explain to her when I have a chance, not now.” “…
Okay.”
Shen Dai lay down again, still facing Qu Moyu with his back.
Qu Moyu looked at an electronic invitation letter on his mobile phone: “Bai Xiangwan will come to the exchange meeting next week.” This academic exchange meeting is hosted by the Rare Earth Association, and it is an important annual gathering in the industry. The boat will be sponsored, so he was naturally invited.
Shen Dai remained silent.
“You should also go to the meeting, and you are not allowed to meet him in private.” Qu Mo said in an orderly tone, “Whether you want to invite each other to dinner, or to participate in the dinner, or if he said he wanted to see Qiuqiu, he is not allowed.” ”
Shen Dai gritted his teeth.
“Qiuqiu’s acceptance of me is getting higher and higher, and soon he will no longer need Bai Xiangwan’s pheromones. I don’t mean to restrict your social freedom, but for an alpha, you and Qiuqiu have the same relationship with Bai Xiangwan. The relationship between Xiang Wan is intolerable, and you should learn to avoid suspicion.” Qu Moyu leaned down and kissed Shen Dai’s glands, “Be good, promise me.” His tone was gentle, but he listened deeply. Dai felt chills down his spine.
“Understood.” Shen Dai said in a deep voice.
Bai Xiangwan and Xiaodie arrived in Beijing on Wednesday, and the exchange meeting will be held on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Shen Dai originally wanted to invite them to dinner on Thursday, but considering that Qiuqiu had no one to take care of him, he finally decided to eat at Cheng Zimei’s house.
At the same time, he has to take time to visit his grandma in the hospital.
On Thursday morning, Shen Dai packed all the things needed for the estrus into Qiuqiu’s nanny bag. He asked for leave and calculated the time, but if the estrus didn’t come as expected, he would be in trouble , Need a new excuse to explain to Qu Moyu why he didn’t go back to Qu’s house.
But now there is no better plan, and it is better to confess after the fact than to be caught by Qu Moyu at his most vulnerable moment.
Qu Moyu asked Lao Wu to take them back, but he couldn’t refuse, so he could only go home with Qiuqiu first, and then take a taxi to Cheng Zimei’s house after Lao Wu left.
When he stayed at Cheng Zimei’s house last time, he took a spare key. After entering the house, he settled Qiuqiu down first, bought food and wine with his mobile phone, and while waiting for the delivery, he counted his inhibitors and other keys again. nutrient solution.
Suddenly, he felt his heart beat faster, his legs became weak, and a layer of sweat immediately broke out on his body. This feeling came and went quickly, but it still made him terrified. This means that the estrus period is approaching, and it may be a day or two. When this kind of strong hormonal fluctuations become more and more frequent, it is time to eat restraint According to his past experience, it is likely to be tomorrow, or the day after tomorrow at the latest.
