Chapter 172: A Night for Two (Part 1)
Hearing Gu Yan's voice, Chen Yuan was subconsciously stunned.
He thought he had misheard, so he looked back at Gu Yan and found that she was also looking at him.
"What did you just say?"
I said...... Can you stay and not go next door......
Gu Yan lowered her head a little shyly, "I'm here alone, I'm a little scared......"
"Oh......"
Chen Yuan nodded confusedly, and then quickly reacted. Even a girl like Gu Yan who can fight with corpses alone in despair will also have her vulnerable side. Perhaps this lonely night just touched her weak and sensitive nerves.
Chen Yuan returned to the table and put the things in his hand back on the table, scratched his hair, and said with a smile: "It's okay, if you're afraid, then I'll be here with you." ”
Gu Yan bit her lip, "Then you ......?"
Chen Yuan took out the spare quilt from the cabinet, then covered his body and sat down directly on the sofa. He adjusted a comfortable posture and said with a nonchalant face: "I'm here, you don't have to worry about me, you can sleep well in bed." ”
Seeing Chen Yuan sitting on the sofa with him like this, Gu Yan naturally felt sorry in her heart. But she didn't know if it was appropriate to ask Chen Yuan to sleep on the bed, so she struggled for a while, but only said, "Thank you......"
Chen Yuan didn't want her to be burdened, so he said casually: "It's really okay, don't think about it, you sleep well." With that, he closed his eyes and let his body relax completely.
The night was getting deeper.
The moon finally peeked out from behind the clouds.
A shallow layer of silver glow sprinkled on the ground along the window.
Maybe it was the sudden chill that made Chen Yuan wake up from his sleep in a daze.
I shivered subconsciously, looked down and found that the quilt had fallen to the ground without knowing when. No wonder it was a little cold, he bent down and picked up the quilt, and suddenly noticed Gu Yan sitting on the edge of the bed in the corner of his eye.
Why hasn't she slept yet? And she looks like she's about to get out of bed.
Chen Yuan looked at her with some confusion, "Have you never slept all this time?"
Gu Yan let out a soft "um", and then retracted her legs back into the quilt.
Chen Yuan asked strangely: "You...... Aren't you going to the bathroom? The candles are burned out?"
"It's not. ”
Seeing that Chen Yuan was still very puzzled, she added in a low voice, "I was going to go down and help you re-cover the quilt just now, and you have already removed it three times." ”
"Uh......"
Chen Yuan scratched his hair a little embarrassed, "That, thank you." ”
"It's fine. ”
"Then why don't you sleep? Aren't you sleepy, but you still can't sleep?"
Gu Yan bit her lip, hesitated for a moment, and finally said embarrassedly: "I have a stomachache......
Chen Yuan looked at her and was stunned for a long time, and then he realized that she couldn't sleep because of menstrual cramps.
"Uh, how can you feel better?"
For the current situation, Chen Yuan obviously has no experience at all.
Gu Yan endured the pain and shook her head, "There's nothing I can do, I always stand through like this......"
"Huh?"
This answer surprised Chen Yuan very much, "How long does it have to hurt? ”
"I've always been like this before, just bear with it. ”
Chen Yuan frowned slightly and carefully examined Gu Yan. Her face seemed to be pale because of the pain. Chen Yuan thought about it seriously, and remembered that he had seen on the Internet about how to relieve menstrual cramps in girls. It seems that the easiest thing is to drink hot water or something, but now that there is no electricity, how can I get hot water?
Gu Yan had already shrunk into the quilt and lay down again, so after a while, she began to let out a very faint moan, obviously because of the pain, she couldn't help it.
Chen Yuan came to the edge of the bed and sat down with an anxious face, looking at Gu Yan in such pain, he felt very uncomfortable.
"Think about it, is there anything you can do to relieve this pain?"
Gu Yan replied with difficulty: "Maybe it will be better to be warmer......"
"Are you cold?"
"Hmmm......"
Chen Yuan lightly tapped the back of Gu Yan's hand exposed outside the quilt with his fingers, and the cold touch immediately came back through his fingers.
"So cold?"
Gu Yan didn't speak, but looked at her and seemed to tremble faintly.
Chen Yuan hurriedly returned to the sofa and spread his quilt on Gu Yan's quilt, if there were two layers of quilts, it would definitely be much warmer.
"If you hold on a little longer, it should be warm up in no time. ”
Gu Yan looked at the two quilts covering her, a little apologetic, "Then what should you do?"
"I'm fine, you don't have to worry about me. ”
Gu Yan bit her lip and said cautiously, "Why don't you ...... You can sleep in the bed too......"
"Uh......" Chen Yuan was stunned, "Isn't that good?"
Gu Yan shook her head slightly, "It's okay." ”
Seeing that Chen Yuan was still hesitating, she added in a low voice, "Come up." ”
"Oh......"
The two of them lay on the same bed, covered with the same quilt. But Chen Yuan always kept a short distance from Gu Yan.
The silence lasted in the middle of the night, and after a long time, Gu Yan's slightly trembling voice came, "Your hand...... Is it hot?"
It was obvious that she was still in pain, and Chen Yuan immediately replied, "Hot." ”
"That'...... Can you help me press my little belly......"
"Oh...... Good. ”
In a trance, Chen Yuan stretched out his hand, Gu Yan attached his hand to the back of his hand, and then pressed it together at the position of the lower stomach. The cold touch turned back through his palm again, and Chen Yuan blinked, stiffly maintaining this posture, trying his best to restrain his cranky thoughts.
I don't know how long it took, the cold touch began to gradually become warmer, and then, Gu Yan's even and smooth breathing finally came to my ears.
Presumably she must have fallen asleep.
Slowly exhaled, but Chen Yuan still maintained this posture and didn't dare to move.
Looking at the small side of Gu Yan's face in front of her, under her long eyelashes, she closed her eyes lightly, and seemed to be sleeping very deeply.
Chen Yuan couldn't help but be a little intoxicated, and sure enough, the beauty was still a beauty at all times.
He smiled, he didn't know what kind of dream Gu Yan was having now, hoping to make her feel warm.
There didn't seem to be a single star in the night sky outside the window.
The lonely moon finally broke free from the shackles of the clouds and floated freely in the sky.
So in the flickering candlelight, the moonlight wrapped the house in an illusory layer of silver sand.
Chen Yuan looked at it stupidly, and he didn't know when, he also closed his eyes and fell asleep deeply.
……
The golden morning light gradually lit up the darkness in his field of vision, Chen Yuan slowly opened his eyes, and subconsciously raised his hand to block the sunlight coming in from the window.
Instinctively blinked, and everything around him quickly became clear.
It seems that because he held a position for too long last night, he feels that his body is stiff now.
Gu Yan was no longer lying on the bed, she was sitting quietly on the sofa with her knees hugged, and she was looking at Chen Yuan with a smile in her eyes at the moment.
"Good morning. ”
She whispered.
Chen Yuan slowly supported his body and leaned against the head of the bed.
"Ah, good morning. ”
He scratched at his hair, trying to make himself sober again.
"Have you been up for a long time?"
Gu Yan shook her head slightly, "I didn't get up long ago." ”
"Oh......"
Chen Yuan twisted his neck and stepped off the bed.
"Are you still sleepy? If you are sleepy, you can go up and sleep for a while. ”
"No need. ”
Chen Yuan nodded, walked to the sink and washed his face.
The temperature of the cold water quickly stimulated his nervous system, and he felt a lot more awake.
After returning to the table and drinking a large sip of mineral water, Chen Yuan lit a cigarette and stood by the window in a daze.
Gray smoke shimmered in the daylight.
Chen Yuan suddenly remembered what happened last night, and hurriedly turned his head to look at Gu Yan and asked, "That, does your stomach feel better?"
Gu Yan replied softly: "It's already much better." ”
"Oh, that's good, that's good. ”
"Thank you. ”
Gu Yan looked at Chen Yuan and blinked, then lowered her head slightly and smiled slightly, "Your hands are very warm." ”
"Ah, is it?"
Chen Yuan didn't know what to say for a while, so he simply replied casually.
This time, Gu Yan just nodded and didn't speak again.
Chen Yuan finished his cigarette in silence, then walked to the table and opened the bag full of snacks.
"Shall we have some breakfast?"
As he spoke, he took out a piece of bread and a bottle of breakfast milk and handed them to Gu Yan.
"Thank you. ”
"Don't be so polite, eat it. ”
During the breakfast, both of them ate very seriously and did not communicate with each other.
After eating, Chen Yuan looked at the time and said to Gu Yan: "I have to go to find a car, you have to rest here first." ”
Gu Yan smiled and nodded, "Okay, pay attention to safety." ”
Leaving the hotel, the sun-drenched streets are very different from the oppressive darkness of last night. Although there are still zombies dangling everywhere, it will at least give people a sense of hope.
Chen Yuan stood at the door of the hall, moving his limbs, and after feeling that his whole body was in a state adjusted, he began to move in the other direction of the street.
He walked for more than two hours in one go, and finally saw a motorcycle with a key in a relatively spacious alley. This place seems to be the back door of a bar, presumably left by the people who came to club before. A feeling of ecstasy immediately came over him, and he hurried over to check it. It's completely openable, and it feels very good in every way. The only problem is that there is no oil left.
However, this was not a problem for Chen Yuan at all, he got on his motorcycle and started full speed towards the gas station.
Feeling that he was about to return to the shelter with Gu Yan, his mood gradually became as bright as the sun.
