“…… Go back, I'll stay with him tonight......"

“…… It's okay, I can't sleep either......"

The scattered sound slipped into my ears intermittently, a little faint, with a little hoarse wetness. Luo Yi moved his fingers with difficulty, trying to open his eyes and look at the person who spoke. But the overwhelming darkness in front of him seemed to be about to drown him, and he was powerless to struggle, so he could only let his body sink into the dark abyss step by step.

“…… Okay, I'll send Shengge back first. You also try to sleep for a while, and I'll change you tomorrow morning......"

The man's voice was very familiar, and Luo Yi moved his body in the dark, wanting to ask him about his current situation. The door to the ward opened and closed, as if someone had left. Feeling an unspeakable panic at the darkness in front of him, Luo Yi struggled to turn his body in the darkness, but was frustrated to find that it was just in vain. His motionless limbs went limp, as if they had detached from his body. His eyelashes fluttered uneasily, and he desperately wanted to open them.

The familiar and warm breath drew closer, and it seemed to be sitting on the edge of his bed. was caressed by those cold hands on his forehead wrapped in gauze, and it was unbelievable that he was still in a panic a second ago, and he actually felt a strange calm.

"Arlo......" he heard the man call to him. Such a salutation, such a tone. It's been a long time since it's been a long time, and it's like a few centuries apart.

An inexplicable sourness welled up from the corners of his eyes, Luo Yi in the dark closed his eyes tightly, and the light and shadow in his memory appeared in front of him. Shen Jue, a teenager, sat under a vine-entangled grape trellis, with large tulips behind him. The breeze ruffled his forehead, revealing a pale scar on his forehead. He raised his hand to smooth the corner of the book in the poetry collection, and looked at him with a pair of smiling eyes.

"Arlo, you're here—"

That's what he always called him then.

It is not the "Luoshen" who will be alienated in the future, and it is not the "Luoyi" who tends to be polite.

He was obviously the first person to call him "Arlo".

Even later, when he stood alone on the stage, many people in the audience shouted for him eagerly like this.

He also always remembered whose lips and teeth the name that symbolized intimacy came from.

"Wake up, you've slept for a long time, don't you have nightmares......"

There was a familiar smell lingering on the tip of his nose, and even the sound of the man's breathing was familiar to him.

Obviously sunk in the deep darkness, he suddenly wanted to raise a smile. I want to tell him that it wasn't a nightmare.

I also wanted to attach it to his ear, and said to him word by word-

You know, I had a good dream.

Coincidentally, in that dream, it was all you.

"Do you remember when you were a child, you always liked to play dead to scare me?" As if recalling something that couldn't help laughing, the voice of the person in front of the bed was hoarse, but the tone was very soft, "Well, you probably don't remember it for a long time...... But I can't seem to forget...... Maybe it's because of that time, for me......"

The eyelashes couldn't help but tremble slightly, and I couldn't help but tense my body. The man on the hospital bed moved his fingers without a trace, and even his breathing became cautious.

“…… Really, the best part. ”

The breath of the person on the bed stagnated, and the fog in the respirator gradually spread. I didn't notice anything strange about the man, sitting in front of the hospital bed, Shen Jue clenched the man's hand, and a gloomy light appeared in the corners of his eyes.

"I'm sorry I haven't been able to tell you......" In the palm of his hand, the man's slender and beautiful fingers were covered with gauze because of the small wounds, and they looked a little bloated. His fingers carefully passed through the middle of the gauze, Shen Jue lowered his head and buried his cheeks wet with tears in the cold palm of the man.

"I regretted not being able to see you again before I went to England. ”

A muffled voice came from the palm of his hand, with a hot wetness, burning the man's cold palm.

"Obviously the person I care about the most, but before leaving, I couldn't say goodbye to you...... I dare not imagine what your expression will be, nor do I dare to write to you from England as if nothing happened...... I hesitated for a long time, crumpled a lot of stationery, and even though I went to a far post office to buy stamps back, I still hesitated to send them......"

"On the day of your debut, I watched the broadcast on the Internet. I want to leave a message to support you, but I don't know what to say...... I've bought tickets for every one of your concerts, but I haven't been able to go to the venue once...... Heng Zhao said I was a fan, but I knew I wasn't — I wasn't for your album, and I wasn't for your stage. I bought the tickets just to get the courage to see you and see if you were having a good time after I left......"

"But then I always feel unspeakably sad just by looking at you standing on the stage. The better and better you are, the better you are, the more I feel that I was really cruel at that time. As long as I look at you, it's as if someone keeps saying to me, look, the time when he needs company the most, there hasn't been you for a minute......"

The fingertips holding the instrument began to tremble slightly. Sitting on the other side of the man, Shen Jue, whose face was wet with tears, still did not look up. Worried that tears would soak the gauze in the man's palm, Shen Jue raised his hand and wiped the red and swollen eyes fiercely.

"You must be disappointed, at that time...... I'm always overdone, and it's never me who comes out first when you need it most......"

"This time, it's the same this time......" Reaching out to caress the man's gauze cheek, Shen Jue's voice was dumb, and his vision was blurred by tears, "The whole world knows that you are lying in the operating room, you have been rescued for five hours, and everyone is by your side to guard you." Your fans are crying for you, but I'm the last ...... to get the news and rush to you."

Burying his head deep in the man's weak arms, Shen Jue closed his eyes, and the corners of his red and swollen eyes gushed out with a gurgling saltiness, wetting his sideburns.

"I'm going too far, am I? don't forgive me...... As long as you wake up, you can punish me as much as you want, as long as you wake up, as long as you want to wake up......"

Feeling the coldness of his fingertips touch on his forehead, his eyes slowly widened, and Shen Jue raised his eyes in a daze and looked at the hand of the man wrapped in gauze. As if sensing his disbelief, his eyes opened a slit, and the man who was still a little dazed curled his lips at him with some difficulty.

The palm wrapped in gauze stroked his wet sideburns, and he took the ventilator tremblingly, Luo Yi clenched the trembling fingertips in his hand, his voice was hoarse like rough sandpaper, and the corners of his bloodstained eyes were covered with a pale smile.

"I didn't ...... It's okay......"

"Enough...... At first glance, it's you ......"

Motionless, Shen Jue stared at the man in front of him in a daze, and burst into tears at the moment when Luo Yi curled the corners of his lips at him again.

Before the man's hoarse words fell, he couldn't help it, and rushed over and hugged him tightly——

There was a sudden roar in his ears, as if he had heard the most beautiful voice in the world, and he maintained the last shred of reason to avoid the wound on Luo Yi's chest, Shen Jue closed his eyes, and the tears that frantically flowed across his cheeks fell unscrupulously, wetting Luo Yi's shoulders.

What did he say-

What did he just say to him—

- I'm sorry, the last one rushed to you.

- It doesn't matter. At first glance, I saw you.

- That's enough.

"Mom, don't ask again...... I have also appeased my uncle, he is still on a business trip, and he said that he will come back overnight and will arrive tomorrow morning. Anyway, now that he is out of danger, the doctor said that he was lucky not to hurt his internal organs, and then he just needs to recuperate with peace of mind......"

silently unscrewed a bottle of water and handed it to Zheng Hengzhao, looking at Zheng Hengzhao who was holding his mobile phone, took a sip of water, and continued to report to Zheng's mother that he was safe, Gu Shengge opened his eyes, and felt a little inexplicably distressed.

When Han Peiming left, Gu Shengge insisted on staying. Looking at Han Peiming's back and turning back again and again, Gu Shengge looked at Zheng Hengzhao who was constantly on the phone on the side, and a deep helplessness appeared in his eyes.

The man's lips were almost chapped, and the dark circles under his eyes looked more and more haggard against the background of the night. He held the phone, his voice hoarse. Seeing the appearance of the man with his own eyes, how could he follow Han Peiming back to the crew overnight with confidence......

Zheng Hengzhao's call seemed to be going on for a while, and after looking at the surrounding buildings, Gu Shengge signaled to Zheng Hengzhao, and in the man's surprised gaze, he flashed into the 24-hour pharmacy opposite.

"Hello, do you need something...... Eh, are you...... Gu Shengge?!"

Gu Shengge, who didn't expect to be recognized at a glance and completely forgot that he needed to disguise, raised his eyes and smiled a little apologetically at the surprised clerk,

"I'm sorry, I'm in a hurry, can you please wrap me some tea that clears the fire and calms my nerves? Oh, and stomach medicine, please help me get two boxes of this brand......"

"Okay, okay! No problem!" seemed to be immersed in the surprise of seeing the star with her own eyes, the girl standing behind the counter quickly took out two boxes of medicine, grabbed the child next to her, and glanced at Gu Shengge with bright eyes, "That, your song is really good! The previous album is played every day in our store, and the customers love it......"

"Really, thank you for your support," looking at the bright eyes of the girl in front of him, Gu Shengge bent his eyes and smiled gently, "I'm really sorry to trouble you so late......"

"Where! I'm so happy to see you!" Gu Shengge's smile blushed inexplicably, put the packaged tea into the bag, peeked at Gu Shengge's fair skin, she hesitated, but still asked curiously, "Are you going to drink these tea......s yourself?"

"Ah, it's for a friend, thank you for your concern. Smiling and taking the tea, Gu Shengge paid the bill and said goodbye politely.

When I pushed the door out, I saw Zheng Hengzhao striding over. Gu Shengge, who was led by the man into the car, would not know that in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of the pharmacy, the girl holding her mobile phone had an excited light flashing in her eyes. 166 Reading Network
