Chapter 13: The Return

When I woke up the next day, it was soft under my body, and the soft sunlight shone in through the gap in the curtains on my side, gently reflecting on my face, and the quilt on my body seemed to be softer than usual.

A faint fragrance lingers on the tip of the nose, I can't say what kind of smell it is, with a little warmth, with a little strangeness. The smell enveloped all over the body gave birth to a soft sense of security. After taking a deep breath, I suddenly woke up in my head: an unfamiliar smell? I quickly opened my eyes and took a closer look at my surroundings.

There was a hint of familiarity in the unfamiliar layout of this room, not my bedroom at home, let alone a cold ward. After patting his head and carefully recalling what he had experienced in the past two days, he remembered that this was Quan Yu's home.

It doesn't matter if I don't remember, once my brain starts to turn, the events of last night come to mind again, before going to bed I remember that I rolled under the bed with a quilt, why do I sleep in bed now? Maybe the body is honest, I should feel uncomfortable on the floor and climb up by myself.

I woke up, I woke up, but I didn't dare to open the door to face Quan Yu, although I kept forcing myself to take a deep breath, trying to eliminate the tension that Quan Yu left me, but when I remembered that Quan Yu was still outside, all the things of last night still came to my mind, and my heart beat uncontrollably, and my face was red.

What's worse is that lying on the bed where he has been lying, the smell of Quan Yu is all between his noses, and that faint fragrance will always associate me with yesterday's deep kiss. Then my cheeks began to heat up, and then my ears and neck burned with them, and my mind was in chaos, and the more I tried to stay calm, the more many little people buzzed in my head.

I don't know what kind of tone I said to him after pushing the door open. Before I could dwell on it for too long, there was a knock on the door, and Quan Yu's voice came in immediately, "Zhen Rou, are you awake?"

This understatement instantly disintegrated my psychological construction of myself, and I was nervous and didn't know how to answer him. Afraid that he would come in and see my embarrassed appearance, he simply hid his head in the quilt again, and he didn't dare to make a sound.

Quan Yuxu knew that I was deliberately silent, and said to himself: "Your clothes are all in your home, and I don't have anything here that you can change and wash, so I went to buy you a set of clothes yesterday, you can wear them to work today, and I have washed and dried the underwear." I'll put it at the door for you, and you'll come out and get it yourself later. ”

Listening to his tone, it was no different from the usual, I tried desperately to steady my heart that was about to beat out, and after listening to the footsteps go away, I quickly jumped up from the bed and opened the door, and then quickly picked up my clothes and locked the door again.

When I took out the clothes in the bag one by one and put them on the bed, I really had the heart to find a hole to get into. There is a set of white underwear sandwiched between the regular clothes, and when I touch the silky fabric, I know that it is not a cheap color, and it actually has lace edges, which makes my old face as hot as fire.

However, after putting them on, they unexpectedly fit well, as if I had tried them on myself. This Quan Yu doesn't know how much he has read flowers, but he has developed a pair of fiery eyes on them, and he can estimate the girl's measurements very well by visual inspection alone. Thinking of this, there is a trace of admiration in my heart, but there is also a trace of unhappiness, maybe I feel that I am seen so thoroughly, and I am particularly uncomfortable.

The clothes are on, but my old face is really crimson, and I dare not go out for a long time. The people outside shouted with a smile: "I'm ready to eat, don't you want to come out to eat? I remember you didn't take any time off today!"

Forget it, I went out, I ate salt particles for a few more years, I didn't have any cheekiness, and I didn't admit what happened last night when I went out, and I insisted that it was his dream, besides, I took 10,000 steps back, and I didn't deliberately want to take advantage of him, and he couldn't ask me about it.

When he opened the door, the slim young man in front of him had already put all the rice on the table, including lo noodles and fried eggs and pickles. Quan Yu is very good at this, although he has been abroad for many years, he still has a Chinese stomach, and he has not been led astray by the capitalist hamburger and chicken legs.

"Zhen Rou, I took cold medicine last night and slept until dawn, but I didn't wake up once, this domestic cold medicine is really magical. Quan Yu said inadvertently, "I have a good eye, the clothes are very suitable for you, you can wear more light-colored clothes, don't always dress up with a single look, you are an upright girl, you should wear more delicate colors like flowers. ”

It seems that he doesn't remember what he did last night, so that's good, at least it can be less embarrassing. I heard the ridicule in his mouth, and not to be outdone, I replied: "You have already bought clothes when you came to the hospital yesterday afternoon, so why don't you give them to me and let me wear your clothes"

Quan Yu raised his head, made an innocent expression, and said unhurriedly: "Oh, I just want to see you look in my clothes." ”

A mouthful of old blood choked on me, and I couldn't take it anymore. This person, in words, can rarely bargain, but fortunately, his cooking skills are good, and he can somewhat comfort his collapsed heart at this moment.

I probed his forehead with my hand to make sure that his fever had subsided before I sat down to eat, and I couldn't hold back after a long time at the dinner table, and asked him: "Quan Yu, how did you find me, the road conditions at that time should not have been able to drive the car, and there may be rockfalls and mudslides at any time, at that time I really thought that I had no hope of living." ”

Quan Yu said: "Oh, I went to check with you in the afternoon, you were not there, and other colleagues said that you asked for leave today, saying that it seemed to be your father's death day, and I didn't care at first." But then the rain became heavier and heavier, and then I read on the news that there was a landslide on the way to the cemetery, and the situation was quite serious. I called you and you didn't answer, and then I wondered if you were blocked from it. I went home, knocked on your door and you weren't there, I was so worried that I wanted to go to the mountains and have a look, even if it was just in case, I wanted to make sure. What if you're in the mountains, what if you're trapped, I want to go up and find you, even if I can't take you out, at least I'll be with you. But halfway up, the road was cut off by rocks, and the car really couldn't get up, so I could only get out of the car and walk, there were too many obstacles, the rain was too strong, and the walk took me too long, and then I soaked in the rain for too long, and the mountain road was difficult to walk, and I was about to collapse. But a strong willpower sustained me to keep going, and the further I went, the more convinced I was that you were trapped, and that I was sure that I was getting closer and closer to you. Finally I found you and saw that you were trapped in the car, which was already filled with water, and you didn't move in it. I was frightened, my head was numb all of a sudden, I didn't know what to do, and I was stunned for a long time before I thought of breaking the window to save people. The hand holding the stone was a little trembling, and when I smashed the window, I almost missed my head and hit you. You don't know how frightened I was when I hugged you, at that time, you didn't have the breath of a living person on your face, I had a particularly terrible thought in my head at that time, and I didn't even dare to reach out to try if you were still breathing. I held you and called your name loudly, until my face was against your neck, and I was sure that you still had a pulse, and suddenly I had a surge of strength in my body, and I carried you for several hours on the mountain road, and after I didn't know how many times I fell, I finally got back to the car and took you to the hospital. You'll find out the rest of the story. I'm embarrassed to say that there are a lot of scratches on your body, but I accidentally scratched you when I tripped and fell. ”

Although he said that the clouds are light and the wind is light, and he can still stuff the noodles and eat the fried eggs when he is tired, but I have personally experienced the scene on the mountain road that day, and naturally know that this whole process is not as relaxed as his expression at the moment, and if he is not careful, he may be killed by a boulder and swallowed by a mudslide, and there are too many devastating factors.

After a long time, I heard myself choke up and ask, "Why did you come to save me, in that situation, you could die at any time." ”

After Quan Yu put a piece of pickles in my bowl, he said unhurriedly: "Oh, I didn't think about it that much at the time, I just didn't want you to have an accident, I wanted to cook and eat with you, and I wanted to use your washing machine and refrigerator, and I could lie on your sofa when I was drunk." ”

I was the first stranger in the city who treated him well, and when he rented a house, moved, and served him drunk, I was like a sister to him, so he didn't want anything to happen to me.

If I continue to ask, it seems that I am being sentimental. "In the future, you cook, I will help you wash, you can use my washing machine and refrigerator at any time, but you can no longer sleep on my sofa, whether it is when you are drunk or not", this is also my selfishness, I don't want to appear in the ambiguous space like last night, before things are out of control.

Quan Yu looked at me for a long time without speaking, and finally added: "Yes, I don't sleep on the sofa, I buy a tent, the floor between your sofa and the coffee table is good, you owe me a life-saving grace, just take the space of that floor to pay it back, it just so happens that I also think that your sofa is too small, I don't sleep very comfortably." I'll go back and buy a bigger tent. Buy a larger rug and spread the tent on top of it. ”

It's another mouthful of old blood in the throat.,People are taking the grace of saving lives.,This requirement can't be met, but it seems that I'm stingy.,If he really wants to come over in the future, I'll go back to my room early and lock the door and sleep.。

Suddenly thinking that he said that he fell down many times when he saved me yesterday, then he must also have injuries on his body, I put down the dishes and chopsticks and rushed over to roll up his sleeves, countless scratches on his arms were wrapped around him like earthworms, and there were countless thin cuts on the palms of the flipped hands, which had formed dark red scabs.

I hated myself for being so careless and only now did I notice that he also had wounds on his body, how could he have escaped in such a dangerous situation?

He asked in a trembling voice, "Is there a wound elsewhere?" Why don't you go to the hospital to bandage it? The fever last night was also due to the inflammation of the wound. ”

Quan Yu silently withdrew his hand, rolled down his sleeve and said: "Well, I accidentally knocked a few bruises on my legs, I only cared about you at the time, and I didn't pay attention to the injuries on my body, and then after the doctor said that you were fine, the scars on my body were also scabbed, and I disinfected them with hydrogen peroxide myself, no big problem." ”

The fog gathered in his eyes, and he deliberately said it very casually, but I listened to it so much that my heart twitched, I had just experienced that desperate situation, and of course I knew that it could not be as simple as he said, and I had experienced the fear of death and the terrible feeling of the wind and rain and muddy water lapping on my body. Even if he really only had some bruises on his body, but I couldn't repay the kindness that could desperately rescue me, think about it, if he was trapped in the mountains at the time, I might have called the police at most and waited anxiously at home. Desperately going up the mountain to save people, I may not really be able to do it.

From now on, I may never be able to treat him as an ordinary colleague or a younger brother, how can I repay him for saving my life?

Quan Yu stretched out his hand to wipe away my tears, and said a little helplessly: "Oh, what are you crying about, I know it's wrong for me to hurt you, it's a big deal that I'll make up for you with a few more delicious meals in the future." ”

I was amused by his words and said, "You have a wound on your hand, don't cook in the future, we can just eat at the restaurant downstairs." ”

Quan Yu tilted his head sideways and said, "We?"

I nodded and replied to him, "Well, we!"
