Chapter 7: Drunkenness
There was the sound of shredded footsteps, followed by the sound of a glass of water.
Lin Wenxuan moved, her body unconsciously shrunk into the thin quilt, and she didn't even bother to lift her eyelids.
She was so sleepy, her headache seemed to explode at any moment, and now she could finally sleep in the warm bed, if it weren't for the fact that she had to go to work tomorrow, she really wanted to sleep like this until tomorrow afternoon.
What day of the week is it? It seems like Friday, right?
The corners of Lin Wenxuan's lips unconsciously began to rise, tomorrow Saturday, she doesn't have to go to work tomorrow at all!
That way, she can sleep as long as she wants!
Although her body and mood were much more relaxed and happy, her head was still groggy, Lin Wenxuan turned over a little uncomfortably, curled up her body into a ball, like a kitten, and fell asleep quietly.
Lin Wenxuan didn't have time to think about what kind of place this was, she only remembered that she was dizzy, and before falling asleep, she seemed to fall into a warm and clean embrace, which made her feel inexplicably at ease.
The temperature in his arms does not belong to Qiao Mingjue, but there is an indescribable sense of familiarity.
Lin Wenxuan remembered that when she walked out of KTV, she saw someone, and that person must have hugged her!
But who is he? Where is this?
Qin Jiaxi sat down lightly on the edge of the bed, watching her curl up uncomfortably, and couldn't help but raise her hand to help her stuff the corners of the quilt, wanting her to sleep more comfortably and warmer.
"Fool, why do you drink so much to please them?"
The bedroom lamp shone softly, and under the dimming of the light, Lin Wenxuan's cheeks became more and more ruddy, but there was a beauty different from the past, just like the sleeping beauty in a fairy tale.
Qin Jiaxi looked at her in a daze for a long time, and a gentle smile appeared on her lips.
It's been so many years, but if you look closely, she still looks like a child, as if time will stay in her.
Qin Jiaxi smiled and raised his hand, wanting to touch Lin Wenxuan's cheeks, which were so red that they were slightly hot.
From childhood to adulthood, Lin Wenxuan has not been drunk many times, and in Qin Jiaxi's impression, Lin Wenxuan is very afraid of drinking, because she doesn't know what stupid things she will do when she gets drunk.
Every time she got drunk, she would go crazy and noisy, like a house sparrow.
Today, she is extraordinarily quiet......
Seeing that Qin Jiaxi's fingers were about to touch her cheek, she suddenly turned over as if she had a sense.
Qin Jiaxi withdrew his hand in a panic, for fear of being discovered by her, and moved to the side with a little weakness, until he found that Lin Wenxuan was just turning over, he breathed a long sigh of relief.
"You're good, you fall asleep when you're drunk, you look quite comfortable, if I didn't worry about running to wait for you, would you plan to sleep outside the KTV door all night? Aren't you afraid of freezing yourself to death......? Do you know that I'm going to worry about you......"
Qin Jiaxi looked at Lin Wenxuan's sleeping face, and there was a gentle wave of light flowing in her dark and deep pupils.
In the past, in the dead of night, when the lights were turned off and lying on the bed, Qin Jiaxi would think, when will this kind of waiting, such a guard, be regarded as the real end?
At that time, Qin Jiaxi thought that as long as he had a girlfriend, all this should be over.
However, when will he meet a girl he really likes?
What girl can be like Lin Wenxuan gave him?
He had never said these words to Lin Wenxuan, and he also knew that Lin Wenxuan had always regarded him as her friend for so many years, and he didn't want to be a burden on her heart, let alone become a friend because of this.
What if it's a friend?
As long as he can be by her side, as long as he can lend a helping hand when she is in trouble, it is enough.
Even if he looked at her quietly like now, Qin Jiaxi felt extremely satisfied.
It was already eleven o'clock at night, and the warm water he had prepared for her had already cooled down, Qin Jiaxi stood up and wanted to change another glass of warm water.
I don't know when Lin Wenxuan will wake up?
According to her habit, when she wakes up after getting drunk, she always likes to drink a glass of warm water that is warm and not hot to the mouth.
She likes to eat sweet things, and the same goes for water, if only she had a little honey in it!
Qin Jiaxi thought in hindsight that there was a jar of honey that she had just bought back not long ago in the kitchen cupboard, and she hadn't opened it yet, so it was better to wait until Lin Wenxuan woke up, and then open it to make honey water for her to drink.
"I like you...... Don't go ......"
Qin Jiaxi had just stood up and taken the water cup, and his wrist was firmly grasped by Lin Wenxuan.
Lin Wenxuan didn't show any signs of sobering up, she still closed her eyes, moved her body to the side of the bed, and raised her hand to grab his wrist.
Her words were like whispers in her sleep, her words were a little indistinct, and her voice was very soft and soft.
However, every word she said, he clearly caught it in his ears.
With a bright light in his eyes, Qin Jiaxi put down the water cup in his hand, sat down on the edge of the bed again, held Lin Wenxuan's hand, and carefully pushed her body into the bed.
She's really naughty, and if she leans out a little more, I'm afraid she'll fall out of bed.
"Xuanxuan, you...... What did you just say?"
Qin Jiaxi's voice trembled, and he leaned over to Lin Wenxuan's side, as if he wanted to hear her answer more clearly.
"Ming...... Mingjue, I like you......"
I don't know if it's a coincidence or what, as soon as Qin Jiaxi's voice fell, Lin Wenxuan gave a clear answer.
In the black eyes, the glimmer of hope was extinguished in an instant.
Qin Jiaxi stuffed Lin Wenxuan's arm back into the warm quilt, lowered her head, and smiled self-deprecatingly.
How could he have thought that she was saying that to him?
Lin Wenxuan and Qiao Mingjue have not been together for a year or two, how deep do they love, do you still need to ask?
Qin Jiaxi raised his head in some frustration, looking at Lin Wenxuan who fell into a deep sleep again, and couldn't tell what it was like in his heart.
It seems that even in her dreams, it is difficult for him to occupy a place......
"Xuanxuan, when will you grow up, and when will you understand my feelings for you......"
The corners of his lips outlined a bitter smile, and Qin Jiaxi shook his head in despair.
When he asked Lin Wenxuan like this, it was better to ask the question to himself.
When will he grow?
The person who has been stuck in the past and is unwilling to face the reality, is he?
It seems that he should have sent Lin Wenxuan back to his home today, and brought her back, this is simply a cocoon! It was he himself who pushed himself into the abyss of love again and again!
He is so stupid, he knows that it is impossible, but he always holds hope and tortures himself again and again.
Xu felt Qin Jiaxi's depressed mood, and Lin Wenxuan carefully rubbed beside him, like a kitten who had done something wrong and begged his owner for forgiveness, revealing a hint of cuteness in the quiet.
Looking at Lin Wenxuan beside her, Qin Jiaxi smiled and couldn't help but raise her hand and gently touch her head.
What can be done? Even if it was painful and bloody every time, he was still willing to accompany her like this.
In the dark night, a lightning bolt pierced the sky, a muffled thunder sounded, dark clouds rolled in, and in the blink of an eye, bean-sized raindrops fell from the sky, and the knocking glass windows crackled.
Qin Jiaxi frowned, got up and walked to the window, closed the window, and closed the curtains.
The weather in Bihu City is really getting more and more unpredictable, one second it was fine, the next second it was raining.
But a rain will at least bring a little coolness to the sweltering heat of the last few days.
Lin Wenxuan seemed to be completely unaffected by the heavy rain outside the window, and slept exceptionally sweetly.
Qin Jiaxi lightly took out another set of quilts from the cabinet, turned off the light, walked lightly, and exited the bedroom.
Walking to the sofa in the living room and sitting down, Qin Jiaxi turned on a standing table lamp next to the sofa, raised his head to look at the heavy rain blocked by the floor-to-ceiling window, and the look in his eyes was a little complicated.
If only the rain had fallen until to-morrow evening, he would have a reason to keep her at home for dinner.
As soon as the idea popped up, Qin Jiaxi couldn't help but laugh at his childishness.
At this time, I'm afraid he is the only person who can come up with such a far-fetched reason, right?
Qin Jiaxi put away the messy thoughts in his mind, looked at the time on his phone, it was almost twelve o'clock at night in ten minutes, he sat up straight and opened the laptop on the coffee table.
Anyway, he can't sleep now, and if he has time to think about it, he might as well study some special cases recently.
This Sunday, when it was his turn to go to work, an operation had already been scheduled, and he had to prepare in advance and be responsible for the patient.
As for tomorrow, let's talk about it tomorrow!
Anyway, tonight, Lin Wenxuan has already slept in his house, she can't get up early tomorrow morning, and leave in a hurry without even taking a bite of breakfast, right?
Thinking of Lin Wenxuan sleeping in the bedroom, Qin Jiaxi felt particularly motivated to work.
As the night deepened, the sudden heavy rain gradually became much lighter, and the moon, which was obscured by dark clouds, finally showed its strengths, casting a faint silver light on Bihu City at night.
There were a few stars hanging in the night sky, trying to flicker their faint light, and two stars were particularly dazzling, they were close together, like a pair of happy lovers, quiet and beautiful.
