Chapter 81 Wife, We Made a Swearing
It's 3 a.m.
Ruan Zhijuan was half asleep when she heard a series of soft "ding-ding-ding... bang-bang-bang..." sounds coming from the living room.
The sounds were like suppressed renovation noises.
Ruan Zhijuan took her clothes off her chest, groggily got up, glanced at the little black dog in its kennel, and then went out to the living room.
Zhou Gangxun was alone in the living room, without turning on the lights. He had his back to him and was using foam mats and wooden boards to seal up all the openings and connections to the outside, including the windows and the front door.
It was pitch black, and no light could get in. If it weren't for the voice-activated nightlight that Zhou Gangxun had put up in the corner of the bedroom, he wouldn't have been able to see anything at all.
Ruan Zhijuan blinked in confusion, "Why...why is the whole house sealed off? Is that all?"
Ah, he knows now, he must be dreaming again.
Go back to sleep and you'll feel better when you wake up.
"I can't afford to kick my toes again this time. I wonder what Zhou Gangxun is up to every day. Humph," Ruan Zhijuan cursed inwardly, but outwardly she quietly climbed back into bed and fell asleep.
Zhou Gangxun turned around slowly, looked at Ruan Zhijuan lying in the bedroom, and his thin lips moved slightly, "There won't be any more bad things..."
……
The next day, at eight o'clock in the morning.
When Zhou Gangxun woke up, he felt a slight throbbing pain in his ear.
It seems he can't hear in one ear.
On the other side, what could be heard was very faint, with a feeling of discomfort like the swelling in the ears when flying, as if a wad of cotton that was hard to flatten was stuck inside.
Zhou Gangxun's first reaction was whether he had been indulging in excessive sexual activity lately.
But does that count?
It couldn't possibly damage his head and cause temporary hearing loss...
Zhou Gangxun glanced at Ruan Zhijuan, who was sleeping close to him, pinched and rubbed his cheeks a few times, then got up and went outside to find a thermometer to measure his temperature.
If there is no fever, the infection is not contagious.
He assumed he had been busy dealing with bidding qualifications these past two days and hadn't had a good rest, so he went into the kitchen to start making breakfast for the two of them.
Wash and peel the tomatoes, add an egg, and make noodle soup.
But just as he had beaten the eggs, Zhou Gangxun was attacked.
"Zhou Gangxun Zhou Gangxun Zhou Gangxun Zhou Gangxun!"
Ruan Zhijuan circled Zhou Gangxun in the kitchen, her head tilted to the side as she leaned in front of his face, and shouted, "How can you ignore me! I've called you so many times! Why is the whole house sealed up? I can't open the windows, I can't see any sunlight, I can't breathe..."
Zhou Gangxun's gaze fell on Ruan Zhijuan's lips, which were moving but silent. He smiled and realized that even though he couldn't hear her, he could tell what Ruan Zhijuan was saying: "Why are you ignoring me?" "I called you so many times..."
He looked at Ruan Zhijuan's lips and said, "Didn't we leave a bedroom window open for you?"
"How can just one be enough? Take all of these down, Zhou Gangxun. What kind of house is like this? It's all wooden planks and sheet metal. The whole house looks like a dark cage." Ruan Zhijuan muttered, blinking her eyes. Zhou Gangxun's voice was so hoarse just now, like he was sick.
Zhou Gangxun was a little slow to catch up this time. He leaned close to Ruan Zhijuan's lips, staring intently, and babbled too fast, "What?"
Ruan Zhijuan stared intently at Zhou Gangxun, asking suspiciously, "Zhou Gangxun, are you so hard of hearing that you can't hear anything at all now?"
When Ruan Zhijuan's eyesight was bad, he would squint, so he thought that if his hearing was bad, he would also lean forward to listen to Zhou Gangxun. That's why Zhou Gangxun is now leaning so close to his face.
"A little." Zhou Gangxun admitted, looking at Ruan Zhijuan's lips and nuzzling his cheek with his nose. "It's nothing, probably just from the constant phone calls during the bidding process."
Ruan Zhijuan pouted, her beautiful eyes glaring at Zhou Gangxun, thinking to herself with disgust, "He broke his ears while making a phone call. Zhou Gangxun is such a big idiot, the biggest idiot in the universe."
He grumbled in dissatisfaction, "Hmph, Zhou Gangxun, I don't believe you at all, so stop talking and I'm going to the hospital to hear what the doctor has to say."
He needs to take the hard-of-hearing and stubborn old man Zhou to the hospital to see a doctor now, lest it become like his leg, saying it was broken and then reattached.
"Eat breakfast first." Zhou Gangxun placed his palm on Ruan Zhijuan's cheek, pinching and kneading his face. He was still bothered by what Ruan Zhijuan had just said: "Why don't you believe me anymore? You used to believe me quite a bit."
He said, "The noodle soup will be ready soon. I'll fry a few sausages and eggs, and then we can eat it with some spinach salad."
"Well... okay then, I want two fried eggs and three sausages... I want the fried eggs with a little salt..." Ruan Zhijuan sniffed, burying her head next to the small pot that smelled of sweet and sour tomatoes. "This noodle soup smells so good... I'll have to use a big bowl later, Zhou Gangxun."
"Um."
……
After breakfast, Old Man Zhou, whose hearing was poor, took Ruan Zhijuan to the hospital. Well, because Ruan Zhijuan didn't know where the hospital was or how to register, Zhou Gangxun could demonstrate it to her so that she wouldn't be at a loss if she ended up in the hospital on her own in the future.
After registering, I took a number and sat in line on a bench in the ENT waiting room.
Ruan Zhijuan sat in the chair and hummed as she criticized, "Zhou Gangxun, your illness is definitely caused by smoking. It can't be separated from you. You smoke, smoke, smoke, all you do is smoke every day, and you don't sleep every night! If you continue like this, your body will break down. I don't want to be wiping your poop and pee at such a young age."
He looked at Zhou Gangxun and asked, "Zhou Gangxun, can't you listen to me?"
"Hmm," Zhou Gangxun responded, his mind elsewhere as he stared at Ruan Zhijuan's chest, unable to hear anything. Was his wife's two mounds of flesh speaking?
Zhou Gangxun pulled her over and buried his face in Ruan Zhijuan's soft flesh; she had sprayed perfume again today.
She's like a little old lady; little old men don't grumble like this.
"Ruan Zhijuan, if one day I get sick, and I get very sick..." Zhou Gangxun had just started to think of something when he was interrupted by him.
What if that's exactly what his wife was planning—to trick him into saying, "Take the money and run away"?
Now that his wife has lost her husband, countless disgusting people will flock to her. Will they love him? No, they'll only bully him. All crows are black.
Zhou Gangxun knew he wasn't a good person, let alone those flies who weren't even as moral as him.
So why would he give his own wife to someone else?
Zhou Gangxun calmly reminded Gong Gu, "Wife, we swore an oath that whoever runs away will be struck by lightning and torn apart by five horses."
