56. May disease
Du Yunfei didn't explain, only let Su He lie flat on the bed and hold his head with his arms.
This time, he pulled up Su He's shirt and pulled it over his shoulders in one go, wrapping Su He's head.
"I can't see it!" Suhe protested.
"You don't have to look at it."
Du Yunfei's warm palm was attached to Su He's back, and he first pushed it flat along both sides of his spine from bottom to top.
"You can also massage." Su He muttered, "What is this, the combination of Chinese and Western medicine?" I thought that Americans didn't believe in our Chinese system. β
Du Yunfei didn't have the habit of chatting, he used the right technique, kneading on Su He's back. Wait until Su He slowly relaxes, and then start the formal massage. First the shoulders and neck, then the lower back, and finally the face and lower limbs. In order to prevent abrasions, he also applied ointment to the palm of his hand to promote qi and blood.
"No wonder you knead the dough well......"
Su He was kneaded up and down by Du Yunfei, and at first he was sore and screaming. But when the initial soreness was relieved, a wave of heat slowly rose in the body, steaming the whole person lightly, as if even the bones were soft and made of tofu.
After kneading for about forty-five minutes, Du Yunfei finally stopped and pulled Su He's shirt back to its original state. But Su He was still motionless, lying on the bed and refusing to move.
Although he is confident that it is impossible to faint people, Du Yunfei can only turn over and see the situation first.
I saw that Su He's face was slightly red, his hair was messy, his eyes were foggy, and he had a refreshing expression that had just come out of the hot spring.
"Doctor, please continue for another hour."
ββ¦β¦β
Du Yunfei lowered his eyes and looked at him, slowly leaned down and leaned to Su He's ear, and responded lightly and clearly: "Get out." β
Su He suddenly said aggrievedly: "You asked me to recuperate, can't I recuperate here?" β
Du Yunfei still didn't speak, and took a silent look offensive.
Su He looked at him unrelentingly for half a minute, then suddenly grabbed the blanket and wrapped himself in his head, rolled to the corner of the bed and pretended to be dead and did not move.
Du Yunfei had no choice but to pick up a book, turn around and turn off the lights and go out.
He was originally going to sit in the hall downstairs for a while, but as soon as he reached the staircase, he heard the voices of Duan Whale and Lin Youqing faintly coming from the living room. Remembering that the two of them did mention it during dinner that they would discuss something serious in the evening, Du Yunfei turned around and turned back upstairs.
There are still many vacant rooms, but there is no furniture for sitting and sleeping. Du Yunfei hesitated slightly and turned to the left.
Su He's room was not locked, and it was pushed open very lightly.
Different from several other people's bedrooms, Suhe's room also has the function of cultivating seedlings. The original bed board has been transformed into a three-tiered wooden shelf filled with seeds in the process of being cultivated.
Du Yunfei was not interested in plants, so he walked straight to the bed and lifted the mosquito net.
The bed was very clean and tidy, which didn't seem to match Su He's own temperament. Next to the pillow tied by the condom, there is also a large book. When I picked it up, it was, of course, a botanical treatise, with various sticky notes pasted on the side.
Forced to face Su He's various immodest expressions all day long, Du Yunfei almost forgot that he was still a botanical scholar. In fact, the reason why several of them were able to "stay in a corner of peace" was also due to Su He's blessing.
Du Yunfei casually flipped through a few pages and saw that the header and footer were densely filled with notes. In all fairness, Su He's words are very good-looking, and there is a feeling of eyebrows dancing, which is in line with him.
Flipping through it, a piece of sticky paper fell out of the page. It wasn't a note, but a doodle.
Du Yunfei once saw Su He paint, and in a special sketchbook, he painted the mutated Lycoris flower. Perhaps in order to faithfully record the situation of the mutant plants, Su He's painting style is strict and orderly, and it can be called meticulous.
But this graffiti in front of me ...... To be honest, Du Yunfei even doubted whether it was Su He's work.
On the sticky notes printed all over the bar, a cat, a dog, and six crooked people are drawn with a blue ballpoint pen.
On the far left, two adults are holding a child, which at first glance looks like a family of three, but if you look closely, all three are men.
In the middle, there is a "demon" with a harpoon in his hand, horns on his head, and a tail on his back; Next to the demon stood a "cherub" with wings on his back.
Seeing this, Du Yunfei already understood that Su He painted this big family on Foguang Island. Then the one standing in the far right corner should be ......
He immediately looked away, only to see that the villain had a dreamcatcher around his neck, a black face, and the corners of his mouth bent down into a semicircle, clearly unhappy.
Du Yunfei was dumbfounded. It turned out that in Su He's eyes, he had always been like this.
In retrospect, it seems that this is really the caseβsince that terrible encounter in the bar, there has been a delicate stalemate between him and Su He. Although the distance of the stalemate is getting closer and closer, and many things that shouldn't have happened have happened in a daze, whenever he faces Su He, he always can't help but keep a straight face.
Is that really the right thing? After all, Su He is also a human being, and he should also feel discouraged after hitting the wall a few times.
I remember that Duan Whale once said that Su He would not approach people who did not have a good impression of him. So if one day, Su He is really hit, will he really leave without looking back?
Thinking of this, Du Yunfei couldn't help but start to reflect on whether the word "roll" just now was a bit excessive.
As soon as Du Yunfei thought of this, he heard the sound of the door opening and closing from the corridor, followed by a series of foot sounds.
Du Yunfei was stunned, but his body reacted faster than reason, turned his head to lie on the bed, and began to pretend to be asleep.
Just when he wondered why he was so uncalm, the door opened.
The person who pushed the door was, of course, Su He. Finding that the light was actually on in his room, he first let out a soft "huh", and then found Du Yunfei on the bed.
Du Yunfei closed his eyes and heard a sound of footsteps walking towards the bed. He couldn't see Su He's face, but he could feel that Su He was already standing beside him and leaning down.
What is this guy going to do, Du Yunfei knew that he couldn't guess, so he didn't think about it. A few seconds later, he heard the sound of Su He's breathing in his ears.
"You snatched my bed this time."
After saying this, Su He reached out and poked the corner of Du Yunfei's mouth. The strength was not great, and Du Yunfei naturally pretended not to know anything.
ββ¦β¦ I really can't wake up. β
Su He seemed satisfied, and finally withdrew his fingers and picked up the thick botanical treatise next to his pillow.
"Good night."
Footsteps sounded again, this time slowly walking away. The headlights on the roof were turned off, the sound of doors opening and closing sounded, and the sound of footsteps eventually disappeared into the hallway.
Du Yunfei reopened his eyes, and the room had returned to darkness. Only a few rays of translucent moonlight on the windowsill, thin as cicada wings, but touching the heartstrings.
ββββ
For a whole week after that, Su He had to recuperate under Du Yunfei's supervision. The affairs in the field were handed over to Lu Rulan and Haichen to take care of. Du Yunfei temporarily took on the week's food.
Although there were still no sweet words on his lips, Du Yunfei was obviously very concerned about Su He's health. Three staple meals a day, two snacks, and a different way to make food. After a few days, Duan Xingze, who was enjoying with him, gained three pounds; Even Su He couldn't help but panic, if he was raised by Du Yunfei like this for another week or two, Yushu Linfeng himself would probably become a ball completely.
Fast forward to the second week of May, and life at the Arboretum ushered in its first small harvest.
The small hillside where Suhe harvested raspberries before is actually a fruit tree plant area. In late spring and early summer, the first wave of fruit of the year has ripened. Native cherries, juicy white sand loquats, mulberries hidden in the bushes, fragrant and soft yellow apricots and plump and bright red nectarines. In the rainforest greenhouse, early-ripening mangoes can also be picked sporadically.
In addition to these common fruits, there are many uncommon plants in the park and greenhouses that are also starting to bear fruit. The lemon has been ripe for some time, and the fruit of the large-flowered purple jade plate resembles a bunch of small bananas with seeds, and the taste is soft and fragrant; All kinds of banyan fruits hang from the branches; Lotus mist, sapodilla are also ripening, and there are also rare mysterious fruits, which are difficult to taste elsewhere.
In line with the principle of non-waste, except for leaving a part for birds and wild animals, Suhe picks these fruits as much as possible. The fruits picked up can't be consumed for a while, and Lu Rulan, who is on duty this week, will do everything he can to save them.
Some of them are sent to the freezer for freezing, and some of them are used to make jam. Among them, the fruit of the apple fig is the most special, in addition to making zuΓ² jam, the pectin in the center can also be used to make zuΓ² jelly.
While they were enjoying the gifts of nature, God's face was quietly changing.
After the beginning of summer, a heavy snowfall fell in northern Europe in mid-May, two radio stations in Antarctica disappeared, and Fung in Malaysia said that this year was particularly rainy, with frosts in southern Canada and survivors in the northern United States complaining about crop failures.
Although the change in climate has not yet had much impact on Foguang Island, the absence of summer this year is almost a foregone conclusion, and winter may also come earlier.
The sense of foreboding gave birth to a sense of distress. Meanwhile, in mid-May, annoying rains returned.
It was overcast for a whole week, and clothes and food were quietly moldy in the corners. Everyone seems to be suffering from seasonal depression, no smile can be seen on their faces, and the negative energy in their hearts begins to ferment.
After a dinner, Duan Whale found Lin Youqing and said his plan coldly.
According to Zhu Yixin, there will be a flight stopping at S City Airport at the end of this month. The airport was right by the sea, and I was thinking about whether to send Xiaoxing to Qinghai. β
Lin Youqing didn't have any psychological preparation: "Qinghai...... Why? β
Duan Whale replied, "He is too young to stay on this island for the rest of his life. What if we are old and dead, what will he do alone? He should return to society, go to a crowded place, and continue his education, which will also help him grow. β
ββ¦β¦ So are you going to let Xiaoxing go alone, or do you want to go with him? β
Duan Whale sighed: "What do you say? Youqing, what do you think we should do? β
Lin Youqing was also silent for a moment: "What we are facing now is a zombie virus that will spread rapidly among the crowd. Do you think Qinghai is safer than here? β
Duan Whale shook his head frankly: "I'm not sure, I just don't think staying on the island is a long-term solution." β
Lin Youqing asked again: "If we all leave, what if the power station and equipment on the island fail?" β
"Maybe you can remotely guide Suhe to carry out emergency repair operations. Maybe...... We can convince them to come with us. β
Lin Youqing smiled bitterly: "Do you really think Su He is willing to leave here?"
"Honestly, I don't think so." Duan Whale also smiled bitterly: "If he doesn't leave, Lu Rulan won't follow either." Dr. Du and Haichen should not leave either...... I feel like I'm creating unrest. β
"What about yourself? Do you want to go to Qinghai, or stay on the island? β
"......" Duan Whale stopped talking and turned to sigh.
As if he understood his heart, Lin Youqing pondered for a moment and gave a compromise idea.
"Xingze is also sensible, and he should be given some power to choose. With a week to go until the end of the month, maybe you can ask him for his opinion first. β
The next morning, taking advantage of the opportunity of being on duty for internal affairs, Duan Whale and Lin Youqing found Duan Xingze to hold a family meeting. But as soon as he heard that he was going to be taken to Qinghai, Duan Xingze immediately expressed his opposition categorically.
In fact, calm down and think about it, Duan Whale himself is not willing to leave behind his brothers and friends. Since his son was unwilling, he decided to expose it.
But Duan Whale didn't expect that another day later, Duan Xingze suddenly disappeared from the villa.
