DON'T MAKE LOVE A THING | CHAPTER 1



Lu Chengyu felt that he himself is busy like a donkey.

Why like a donkey you say? Because when a donkey was playing and grinding he was actually being hoodwinked, his head was being lured and seduced by a big carrot. Lu Chengyu thought that his two eyes was indeed being completely deceived, even more it happened in the busiest time of his life, simply just wandering around the side, he was swayed by the carrot's mouth, not at all appearing to be in any way enticing.
…….
Until now, Tu ran still remember, her Chinese literature teacher was explaining a text from a book, he said: "A great love, has turn into history of literature's most eternal theme ." After the speech, her eyes leisurely look outside the window, expression filled with yearning, and filled with nostalgic memory.
At that moment, Tu ran's heart seems to be stricken. She had not experienced this so-called thing called love, so she didn't feel any sorrow because of the words, but rather she was genuinely admiring the grand words.
She thought, love, what kind of a good thing must that feel like?
Sixteen-seventeen years old are usually always easy moved, the time moves too fast.
Until she was a few years older, the things she heard from the literature class can be condensed into a few words : in this old age, a man with unrecognized talent is lonesome.
Nowadays, there are only two words remaining.
Poor and bitter.

-------
In the early spring.
Lu Chengyu was in the hospital for a night shift. Last night was peaceful, but there was a critically ill patient that appeared to want to stop breathing at any second, immediately he took a rescuing measure to rescuscitate the patient's heart.Afterwards, the condition is stable, that can be considered a tense experience. After everything is over and done well, unexpectedly he can go back home a little bit earlier. , This kind of situation is actually very rare that he felt today is a little bit too good, usually he will always think something bad will happen later.
Outside the window , the sky is hazy, the rain drops and drops continuously . Meanwhile,the ICU hallway's windows are wide open, the air inside starts to become cold.
There was a person standing beside the window.
Lu Chengyu wiped his face and went to ask: "Why so early?"
Tu ran wore a thin black nylon coat that looked bigger than herself, she seemed to want to bring herself to go inside , she dressed herself accordingly, her other hand went to fold her dark purple umbrella, the umbrella emitted out drips and drips of water.
Her complexion looks very poor, although her makeup is meticulous. She looked up at him, smiling and said, "ah, there's a little matter that I want to talk to you about."
He lowered his head and looked at her, but she still didn't speak.
Behind him suddenly there were continuous sounds of hasty footsteps , this place is really not a good place to have a conversation, Lu Chengyu turned back and look, there's a heavily ill patient receiving treatments in the ICU, In a second he decided if this girl is not going to speak he will turn back and take a look, while conveniently breaking himself from some ominous hard-to-say situation.
Tu ran was getting scared by the patients' family constant sobs and her heart jumped a little,  she set her mind and said: "this cannot be considered good news, you better prepare a little."
"Say a." Lu Chengyu's expression looked calm,whatever will come will always come.
Tu ran took out something from her purse and gave a laboratory test to him: "I'm pregnant".
---------
That day, Lu Chengyu took notice of the girl's small body beside him, she looked pretty, figure is slim and was smartly dressed, but the thing is, he had known her many years ago. He even remembered her crying appearance. At that time, she constantly cried and weeped ridiculously, making him feel discouraged and awkward.
He noticed that her fingers have bright colored nail polish and was holding a cigarette. He wondered whether or not to go forward and greet her first, Besides they haven't met for some years and have nothing important to say, what is there to reminisce. Who knows Tu ran took a walk first, separated by only a pale blue smoke, she gave him a polite smile, can be considered saying hello, thus he slightly nodded at her.
The whole thing became a joke. This kind of thing,  Friends will inevitably become busybodies, because Turan's family name is considered rare, they chat with her a little, Zhou Xiaoquan said: "the origins of a Tu surname …… (okay so I think they're making a joke and trying to somehow relate her name to Lu chengyu) " Other people comprehended her meaning, finished listening and then started chuckling, Lu Chengyu thought the group is boring. in addition to work, there's nothing else to satisfy the head beside the matter of loe. After the joke, everybody intended to matchmake them together, then after the party was over, the task of bringing Tu Ran home fell on Lu Cheng Yu's body.
As a result, these two people were beginning to have a vague relationship, neither distant nor close. If Lu Chengyu has any more lively activities to attend  and needed to have a companion to avoid the "third wheel" awkward situation, he will call Tu Ran to keep up the appearance. If  Tu ran has any physical work that she herself cannot do, she will also call Lu Chengyu, but this kind of situation is not frequent, she looking for him, mostly is about work. At that time, Tu Ran has worked as a small pharmaceutical representative for 4 years, meanwhile when Lu chengyu was studying to become a resident physician, he tried had to search the right social connection to go abroad.
Lu Chengyu although young and inexperienced, the resume is fairly substantial, he already  published several pieces of academic papers,participate in educational division/ministry,  and previously gain prestige and authority from becoming his professor's favorite pupil, and consequently he has some connections. Through him, Tu Ran is able to know some people , occasionally receive a few bank notes, but often always want to take large strides forward. Soon afterwards, Lu Chengyu tries to stop her, " Making a profit a bit is ok already, appetite must not be too big, this medicine's profits is already so much, how do you let other people live..." afterwards he straightforwardly persuade "change profession ba, a girl working like this is not suitable "
Tu ran at once said: "yes a, I'm planning to resign."
Lu Chengyu knew she was deliberately negligent , then asked her: "you say ah,in the end what do you want, what's your plan."
Tu Ran crooked her mouth and smiled: "nothing, just want to earn money, want to find money,if the money comes faster then of course it'll be better ", she thought, "except for breaking the law."
Lu Chengyu nodded. "You still have some principle," he also said. "back then you're not like this."
Tu Ran lean her head to one side and asked him: "Back then, what am I like?"
Lu Chengyu thought this question once he open his head will think very far, usually girls after leaving campus and enter into society will more or less change, but Tu Ran's circumstance is different up to the degree of self annihilation, besides he also didn't want to say "I think previously you're stupidly naive, and now you know the ways of the world." Because this statement doesn't sound like a good thing and thus he looked at his wrist and said, "I have to go, going back to the institution for a meeting."
After contacting a few days later, Lu Chengyu and Tu Ran's relationship still has not gone further, staying somewhere in an odd phase, and Lu Cheng Yu is also too lazy to think. He considered  that Tu Ran could be placed in the same area as ordinary friends.
Just in time, the director of the Department is interested in introducing his niece to him. Lu Chengyu, and the girl saw each other, feeling say still can, the girl most important point is that she's a middle school teacher, she also seems to be gentle and polite. Lu Chengyu thinks that his work is so busy, find this kind is also not bad, and so he has a long term plan set. And as for Tu Ran, Lu Chengyu will find an opportunity to give hints to her.
One day, Lu Chengyu received two messages in about the same time.
One is from the director's niece, the text only say "In order to thank you for the first invitation, want to return your invitation and invite you to dinner " and so on.
Another one from the Tu ran: "General Xu do you know? This person is difficult to get a hold of, appearance looks greedy, always promised nicely but still haven't open up medical prescription, tomorrow can you accompany me, otherwise those money will be all wasted, help... "
Lu Chengyu was inside the duty room, napping, in a daze he returned the message in a few words: "can't go, tomorrow night want to accompany girlfriend to eat."
The next day in work, Lu Chengyu found that the director's complexion is poor, and it is directed at him.
After there's an opportunity, the director called him to one side and asked: before didn't it go well , why now like this?" Then he followed with some mocking metaphor, ridiculing him, finally pointing out: "Xiao Lu ah,if you put aside your problematic style from before , it's only natural now you also need to do so, not to mention you are still an outstanding member of the institution,why do you want to go down at a crooked road and make a mistake, you are really disappointing me."
Lu Chengyu pulled out his cell phone and looked, last night he sent the wrong message, also didn't have the mood to explain, just straightforwardly nodded and sincerely said: "your criticism is right, thank you for the advice. I will make amends."
Because of this thing, the majority of people from the other side all know Lu Chengyu has a girlfriend, in addition this Lu young person seems to have a complicated private life, for a moment the number of matchmakers wanted to  match make him also declined. As a result, Lu Chengyu now and then still has time to squander with Tu Ran and continue their dispensable not slow not fast relationship, he suddenly felt like this is also not bad.
He admitted that he finds her to have an attractive force(sex appeal), for example he felt that she is well worth a second look , the figure can also be regarded  as a seductive woman, tall and straight, but her personality is not stable, Behaviour and motif seeks instant benefits, not enough conservativeness and can be considered as not simple, her work is even more unsteady and besides very easy to invite gossip ... In short, if  a mature man wants to have a long term relationship with her, her condition is extremely week.
Lu Chengyu all along had always think like this, until one day he really made a serious mistake.
Then,Turan passed a single sheet test to him.
Despite already having an ominous feeling beforehand, but when he see the word "positive" written, he broke up in cold sweat.
