Incurable Chapter 24 Part 2

The white pigeon flew by outside the window. In the quiet cat room, Mu Wan’s voice was still echoing. After she finished speaking, she looked toward Liu Qianxiu. Liu Qianxiu stood in the light, the sunlight shining through his light coffee-colored shirt, and his tight waistline was faintly visible. He lowered his eyes to look at her, his eyelashes cast a shadow on his lower eyelid, and his voice was deep, like a clear spring of a mountain stream.

“What would you like for breakfast?”

With a smile on her face, Mu Wan looked at his sharp eyebrows. Her heartbeat paused, and she said, “Sandwich and orange juice.”

“Okay.” Liu Qianxiu answered, got up, and left the cat room. Mu Wan looked at his back and laughed again.

The sandwich is easy to make, so it is already done when Mu Wan goes to the kitchen after feeding the three little ones. When she appeared, Liu Qianxiu stood at the dining table and answered the phone. “Well, I’ll go there immediately.”

Mu Wan only heard the ending. But after listening to him, she knew he needed to leave home immediately. Mu Wan didn’t sit in the dining chair, but she looked at him and said, “Are you going to leave? I’ll be leaving with you too.”

“No need.” Liu Qianxiu put the mobile phone away and looked at Mu Wan, who was about to leave. His lips parted, and he said, “You stay here. You can leave here after you finish your breakfast.”

There was a sandwich and a glass of orange juice on the table. Liu Qianxiu should know that he was going out, so he made only one breakfast serving. Mu Wan’s eyelashes trembled. She looked at Liu Qianxiu’s back and followed out together.

The sunlight in the living room was very gentle, and the three little ones who had just been fed in the cat room were crying because they were full of milk. Liu Qianxiu looked at Mu Wan as he stood there straight, always looking at her. He paused slightly and confirmed, “The movie is half-past seven, right?”

“Huh?” Mu Wan returned to her senses, looked at him with a smile, and nodded, “Yes. It doesn’t matter if you are late.”

“I see.” Liu Qianxiu finished speaking, opened the door, and walked out.

Mu Wan watched Liu Qianxiu leave and felt the warmth in the house also seemed to be pulled away with his departure. It had become cold.

It’s no different from being in her own home.

After finishing the sandwiches and tidying up the kitchen, Mu Wan stayed briefly and left the house.

He has a meeting in the morning and surgery in the afternoon, which takes eight hours. After the surgery, Liu Qianxiu’s fingers curled slightly, stiff and numb. The anesthesiologist stopped the anesthesia, and the assistant removed the surgical gown. Liu Qianxiu sat quietly on the lounge bench and squeezed his palm.

After the surgery, Xiao Tan went to the operating room to look for Liu Qianxiu. The nurse told him that Liu Qianxiu was in the lounge, so he came to look for him.

Liu Qianxiu sat on the bench, still upright, his eyebrows drooping, his expression calm, but his eyes showed some fatigue. Also, even iron man can’t stand the eight-hour operation.

“You’re too tired to drive the car, aren’t you? I’ll take you home.” Xiao Tan looked at Liu Qianxiu’s almost paralyzed hand and said to him.

Liu Qianxiu raised his head and glanced at him, loosened his palms, his slender fingers curled slightly with knuckles clearly defined, “No need. What time is it now?”

Xiao Tan raised his wrist to look at his watch, telling the time, and said, “At half-past seven.”

When Liu Qianxiu heard the time, his eyes moved, and he stood up quietly and began to take off his white coat. The light coffee-colored shirt and beige trousers were exposed after removing the white coat. He is tall and has long legs. His cotton and linen clothes are extraordinarily textured. The wrist cuffs were rolled up, revealing the smooth-lined wrist bones and slightly convex tendon, which looked particularly good on the cold white skin.

Liu Qianxiu gives people a very light feeling, but he is a very delicate person from the inside to the outside. No matter his appearance or personality, it’s no wonder that women like him.

Thinking of this, Xiao Tan asked: “Why didn’t that Miss Mu come to see you recently?”

After closing the locker, Liu Qianxiu put on his watch and said faintly, “I’ll go to see her.”

“Huh?” Xiao Tan looked up at him with a surprised expression. Xiao Tan wanted to ask carefully, “No, you are now...”

Liu Qianxiu obviously didn’t want to say much. Then he told Xiao Tan: “I will take leave on Wednesday afternoon, and I’ll be back next Monday.”

Knowing what he meant, Xiao Tan didn’t ask more, but he followed his topic and said, “Do you want to go to Qingyuan temple?”

“Yeah.” Liu Qianxiu replied, got up, and left.

Eight o’clock is the golden peak of the movie theater. When Liu Qianxiu arrives at the movie theater, people go into the theater, all waiting to watch the movie. He glanced across the crowd and saw Mu Wan sitting in the rest area.

She wore a fishbone braid and put it on her left shoulder. There were some small pieces of hair around the hairline, which looked shaggy. She was wearing a floral vest. Her shoulders were thin and straight, while her collarbone was delicate. Her hands rested on the back of the chair, and her chin rested on it. Under the white shorts, her legs are straight, white, long, and casually lazy.

Her beautiful eyes swept across the theater entrance, like a cat nestled behind the chair, waiting for the owner who would surely take her home.

When her eyes flicked across the crowd again, her gaze did not move, and she froze on a thin and tall figure. Her eyes lit up like a puppy saw a bone, got up from the chair, and ran over.

“You are here.” After crossing the crowd, Mu Wan ran to Liu Qianxiu’s side. She looked up at him, her eyes shining with stars.

“Yeah.” Liu Qianxiu looked down at her and apologetically said: “I’m late.”

“It’s not too late.” Mu Wan shook her head. She laughed and said, “Anyway, my role will not come out until later. Let’s go inside.”

The two entered the theater. Mu Wan chose a spot in the middle of the back row with a broad view. After she sat down, she took a look at Liu Qianxiu. He put his eyes on the screen and was already looking at the movie.

The City of Prayer is a modern romantic comedy. Mu Wan plays the male lead’s first love in high school, a white lotus. When the relationship between the male and female leads is heated, the male lead will remember her and have her part simultaneously.

After reading the script, Mu Wan had a general idea of the plot. A good director can make it a lot more attractive than the script, but the director of this film is average, so he could only tell a good story.

Mu Wan looked at the movie for a while, then looked back at Liu Qianxiu.

The screen changed, light and shadow flickered, and the man sat next to her, leaning back on the back of his chair, his eyes closed tightly. The screen light made his silhouette extremely deep, and Mu Wan saw a trace of fatigue from the middle of his brow bones.

Mu Wan’s heartbeat calmed down as she bit the popcorn slowly.

He fell asleep.

In the morning, he said there would be an operation in the evening, and he might come a little late. At the theater entrance just now, Mu Wan was only happy that he had come and did not observe carefully. He should be so tired, but she didn’t notice it. When she thought of this, Mu Wan frowned slightly.

The screen suddenly lights up, and the audience in the theater lets out a low exclamation in unison.

Liu Qianxiu opened his eyes.

He raised his eyes and looked at the screen. On the screen, the woman in a white dress standing under the cherry tree, smiling clean and beautiful.

The scent of popcorn spread in her mouth. Mu Wan looked at Li Qianxiu’s well-defined side face and asked softly, “Why are you awake?”

Liu Qianxiu looked back at her. She held a large bucket of popcorn in her arms, leaning on the back of the chair and looking up at him. The light of the theater screen gradually dimmed, and the black shadow enveloped her facial features like a layer of the black veil.

“Yeah.” Liu Qianxiu replied lightly, then looked back at Mu Wan on the screen and said, “Wake up to see you.”

The author has something to say:
Liu Daochang: I came here just to see you.
