Chapter 11: Protection

You can't live alone in this world, you always have people who can help you by your side, and you always have friends and people who love you to protect you.

I used to live in this house with Cristao, no matter how I said it, there was still a care, every day for dinner, entertainment and someone to accompany me, but now Cristao is gone, this room also lacks a trace of warmth, midnight dreams, everything I see and feel is dark and cold...

It's always a bit bleak to live alone, and one can get sick if you're not careful and have no one to take care of you.

"Ahem..."That is, after returning from Ouyang Ze's company that day, the cold virus began to spread in my body. Even though the weather has turned hotter, the feeling of nasal congestion is still terrible.

Because Tang Rong's due date was approaching, in order to welcome the child, Qin Feng specially took the company's owner's leave and concentrated on accompanying Tang Rong in the hospital. In the face of the money lost every day, he didn't frown, and still smiled at the soon-to-be-born child in Tang Rong's belly.

This long vacation will allow me to rest at home, take care of my illness, and tidy up the last memorial left for me in Chris Tao's room.

Now Xu Shaohui doesn't know what he's busy with, although he comes to see me every day, but he is also in a hurry to chat a few words before leaving, I told him not to come since there is something, but he still doesn't listen, and the visit is not interrupted twice a day...

During this period of illness, Xu Shaohui stayed in the world a lot longer, but every time he persuaded me to move to Wu Yao's building, so that I could continue my unfinished life under Wu Yao's protection.

But whenever I see Wu Yao's face, I always think of the past, and what he has done to me over the years. It took 5 years to repay the sale of 500 yuan, and now it seems that I owe him a little more.

I couldn't face him, I couldn't stay in that building with a sense of guilt, so every time Xu Shaohui mentioned it, I refused...

A cold is not a serious illness, but somehow, I have been suffering from a cold for more than half a month, and I have taken medicine on time every day without pulling it down, but the condition still does not improve, and even sometimes my groggy brain when I get up will make me fall into bed again.

Because of the torture of illness, the progress of packing up Chris's peach things has also slowed down. That day, I felt that my body was much better, so I hurried to tidy up those small things.

"Hmph... When I lowered my head, the snot still couldn't stop flowing down, and at the same time, the dizziness in my brain became more and more intense, I thought it was not a trivial matter, but when I exhaled deeply, my brain was in pain, and my whole body was suddenly cold, and then I lost consciousness...

When I woke up, I was already in the hospital, and when I opened my eyes, I saw no longer bright sunlight, but a fluorescent lamp with an orange glow.

The smell of chicken soup irritated my nasal cavity and nerves, and although the aroma was not as good as that of Chriss, it was still fragrant. When I turned my head to look for the source of the aroma, I saw Wu Yao sleeping beside the bed.

He was still wearing a formal suit, and the hairspray on his head had not been washed off and still exuded a faint chemical smell, and next to the scent, there was his black document bag, and his mobile phone... Looks like he's coming over as soon as he gets off work.

Compared with Wu Yao, Xu Shaohui has no conscience. He was lying on the sofa with a blanket and one foot on the back of the sofa, which was not enjoyable to look at, but it was much better than sitting next to me.

"Hey, get up, don't sleep here." I gently pushed Wu Yao, but his arm was like a stone and couldn't be pushed, and his head was always buried between his arms.

"It's time to get up!" I pushed Wu Yao hard again, and only then did he react, suddenly raising his head and looking at me with sleepy eyes.

His face was full of exhaustion, and although his eyes were wide open at the same time as he saw me, he was still full of sleep, as if he had not rested for a long time.

"I'm hungry, let's have some chicken soup first." When he woke up, he didn't have time to tidy up his sleep, so he reached out to fill me with a bowl of soup. "The doctor said that your cold is caused by a virus, so make up for it."

Looking at him like this, I can't help but think of years ago, when we were still together. At that time, he was also by my side when I was sick, he couldn't cook, but in order to let me wake up and taste his "love", he would still boil a big pot of porridge, although the white porridge was tasteless, but it was full of his love for me.

Things are not people, it has been many years in the blink of an eye, and after experiencing so many things, the mood is naturally a little different. What's more, we also experienced an Ouyang Ze... I can't accept his kindness to me.

"A person at home has to learn to take care of himself, since you are sick, don't hold on, give us a call, after all... After all, we are all friends. He served the soup as he spoke, and his voice choked up when he said the word "friend."

Xu Shaohui slept so dead that he didn't get up after hearing the sound of us talking, but tilted his head to the inside of the sofa to continue his unfinished dream.

"Why are you being so nice to me?" Faced with the bowl of soup he handed me, I couldn't help but ask.

He didn't speak, and his hand holding the soup froze in mid-air and didn't move... It's been 5 years, but I didn't expect that he still can't make him forget me for 5 years, I still live in his heart and haven't left, what is this for?

"Why? Tell me, why can't you let go, why don't you still want to forget me? ”

"No, I don't want to forget. I know it's no longer possible between us, but I still want to protect you, and I'll protect you as a friend. Wu Yao's tone of voice trembled a little, as if he was begging me.

"Please, let me be by your side to protect you, even if you never regarded me as a friend, I still want to protect you like this."

I don't know what to say, he begged in such a low profile, put down his old shelf, and turned out to be such a humble request to "protect me"... What else can I say?

Friends, we can't be friends anymore, there are too many things between us, so that our relationship can't be as normal as friends, but his sincerity, his initiative really makes me speechless, so...

Seeing that I didn't speak, he didn't continue the topic, but fed me the chicken soup little by little with a spoon, so that I could feel the "love" in this soup, which was 5 years late...
