Chapter 3: Visiting the Sick
"You should listen to me in everything in the future! All that listens to you is sin. "Although the rain was a little light, we didn't even change our clothes to get the candy in the car into the warehouse as soon as possible. And I was complaining to him while carrying things.
Maybe he was too tired, after pushing the car for so long just now, Zhao Lei was also a lot quieter. At this time, the liquid on his forehead, I don't know if it was beads of sweat or raindrops, he was also soaked, but looking at him as if it was colder than me, his body was trembling slightly.
"Ahh As soon as he placed the box on the ground, he squirted. And in the small space of the warehouse, his sneeze was amplified many times over. "Are you alright? Do you have a cold? I quickly reached out and touched his forehead, but all I felt was cold.
"How so?" He pushed my hand away, rubbed his nose and said, "My body is fine, but the dust in this room is a little too much, and I am a little sensitive." He walked out again and continued to unload the boxes from the car.
He was wearing a thin shirt today, although the light blue coat wrapped around his body, but after the rain, the white shirt became translucent, and the abdominal muscles in his abdomen became well-defined.
"Let's close the door early today, and it's not good to pick up guests when you're wet." I pulled out tissues from the counter to wipe the rain off my head, and the soaked clothes on my body also absorbed the heat from my body, making me feel cold too.
By the time he finished carrying the last box of candy in the car, he was sweating profusely and his eyes were a little dazed. "Okay, I'll go back after a while." He was so tired that the green tendons on his arms protruded, and I had to wipe the rain from his forehead while I was standing on the side.
Although he said that he was fine, he rested in his chair for a long time, gasping for air, and after a long time, he regained his strength and got up and walked out of the candy house. Looking at his somewhat haggard back, I also hope that he can rest well and not get sick because of this accident...
The rain was like a crying doll, and it couldn't stop raindropping, although it was small, but it lasted all night. Looking at the raindrops outside the window, and the pedestrians running in the rain without umbrellas on the road, I was also worried about Zhao Lei's body.
"Hello? It's me, that, you won't have to go to work tomorrow, so you can rest in the dormitory. "In the end, I still dialed Zhao Lei and told him to give him a day off.
"Ahem!" He coughed twice in one mouth, and the sound in his throat was like a bellows, rumbling uncomfortably to hear, "Thank you, brother." ”
"Do you have a cold?" When I heard him call me "brother", my heart was also touched. Listening to the voice of this "younger brother", I also felt pity, "Take a good rest, and come back to work when you are sick." ”
"Eun." Then, it was the sound of him blowing his nose again...
Because of the rain, the students didn't bother to come to the candy house to buy things, and they probably all nested in the dormitory watching TV dramas and playing online games. Zhao Lei has been in the store for a while ago, and now he left suddenly, and I am not used to it.
Since it's boring to be alone in the store, why don't you go to the dorm to see how his illness is, and when their roommates go to class, they can take care of him again, I thought to myself. In the end, I also made up my mind to seal the door of the candy store with chains...
According to the form that Zhao Lei once filled in, I found the dormitory building where he was. As soon as I entered the inside, I was greeted by the unique "boys' smell", sweat and socks, which filled the entire building, and I couldn't imagine that this was a place where college students lived.
Because it was class time, there was no one in the dormitory in the building, and the sound of stepping on the floor tiles could be heard clearly. Along the floor by floor, I found his bedroom, after all, he is also a rich second generation, how could he endure the smell, a faint smell of perfume also permeated from the house.
"Wow." I knocked lightly on the door, not very strongly, but there was an echo on the whole floor, "Zhao Lei? Are you there? I'm Chen Rui. ”
Suddenly, I heard a commotion in the house, but it didn't take long for it to calm again. "Brother Chen? What are you doing here? Listening to his voice, he was a little surprised, "Come on, I'm lying on the bed, it's not good to go down." ”
When I opened the door, it felt like I had gone back to college, and I felt very familiar with the routine layout of the dorm room and the toiletries on the shelves.
I stood in the doorway and looked at it for a long time, and I scanned the whole room many times. There was only one of the four beds lying on the lower bunk, and next to that bed there was also a wardrobe and a shoe cabinet, and looking at the pairs of designer sneakers on the shoe cabinet, you could know who it was.
"What happened just now? How do I hear so dry in the room? "I put the apples I brought on the table next to me, and moved a chair and placed it next to Zhao Lei." Are you doing bad things again? I looked at him sharply.
"No, no." Zhao Lei was still covering up, and the quilt was also tightly covered. "Why are you here? Don't you care about the candy store? He shifted the subject.
There was a faint smell of perfume in the air, but I still smelled a hint of evil. When I looked at the cigarette butts or two on the ground, I guessed what was going on.
"You get up for me!" I pulled Zhao Lei's quilt violently, although he struggled to pull the corners of the quilt, but in the end I pulled it up. Sure enough, there was a box of cigarettes hidden in his quilt, and the lighter was also tightly held in his other hand. The most despisable thing is not that he hides cigarettes, but ...
"Why don't you get dressed! Don't you feel disgusted to be so naked! I threw the quilt on him again, but my mind was still the somewhat black thing on his lower body, and the "cheerful" appearance of his crossed legs.
He didn't blush, but was very calm, "What's wrong?" Anyway, there are all men in the dormitory, and they don't mind? As he spoke, he secretly withdrew his hand behind his back.
Although the "naked" figure still made me a little unacceptable, but looking at his slowly moving hand, I immediately pulled him out, "Don't try to hide!" With that, I took out the lighter and cigarette he was holding.
"I was sick and I was feeling sick so I wanted to smoke two. Usually I don't smoke! He was still quibbling, and I almost believed the sincere look in his eyes.
"If you don't come, I want to believe that you are a ghost." I said as I shoved the cigarette into my pocket. By the way, I also took out the uneaten bag of jumping candy from my pocket. "Eat this, I didn't finish it just now, you can help me eat it."
Seeing that his pack of Chinese was replaced with cheap jumping candy, Zhao Lei's expression instantly became depressed. "Oh...", although he is more rebellious, he also listens to me a lot of the time, which is why I like him.
"I said that I shouldn't have gone to buy yesterday, you see, I'm sick, I deserve it." I looked at him with disdain, and the tone of my voice was a little ridiculous, but he didn't get angry when he understood me, because he also knew that this was my way of relating to him. "Hey, hey."
"By the way, why did you come? Don't you have to look at the store? He poured the packet of candy into his mouth, and the rattling sound became a little muffled.
"The weather was bad and there were fewer people. After thinking about it, it's better to come and see you. I picked up an apple from the table, took out the dagger I had with me, and peeled it for him.
When he saw me take out the sharp dagger from my pocket, Zhao Lei's eyes widened. "I'm X! You're still carrying this thing? Is it to kill? As soon as he finished speaking, he pulled the corners of the quilt again, pretending to be a victim.
"Die, I'm here for self-defense. There are a lot of bad people these days, and I have to learn to protect myself alone. I said lightly. The blade of the dagger is sharp, so you can hear the crisp sound when you peel the apple.
"Oops~" Zhao Lei teased, "I'm almost thirty years old, and I'm afraid of meeting bad guys?" ”
My hand suddenly stopped moving, and his words reminded me of my current age. "Alas... I'm really getting old..."I looked at the slightly raised green tendons on the back of my hand, and realized that my skin was no longer as firm as before.
"If you meet a bad person, tell your brother directly!" He patted his chest and looked impassioned, "Your brother will definitely help you!" If you dare to beat you, I will definitely beat them to the point that they don't even know their own mother! ”
Looking at his sincere smiling face, a warm current suddenly flowed in my heart. The friends around me have left me one by one, and this kind of promise is like a natural sound that I haven't heard for a long time. "Thank you then." I replied flatly.
"It's okay! What a deal! Because of the cold, he shrunk his neck under the quilt again.
Seeing his cute appearance appear on Junxiu's face again and again, I also had some questions, "You are so good, why don't you talk about a girlfriend?" Isn't it all eye-catching? ”
Hearing me ask, he also pursed his lips reluctantly, "Talked about a... Divide it...", and he took the sliced apple from my hand and took a big bite of it. "It tastes good~"
"Oh, it's okay, who hasn't fallen in love yet! There will be a good girl waiting for you in the future. I comforted him.
"Well, there will be." He gulped down a mouthful of apple, turned his head to look at me and said, "Brother, why do you like men?" Is there anything wrong with women? ”
This is the first time I've been asked this question so bluntly. For a while, I didn't know how to answer, "No, it's nothing bad, I just don't like it." There's nothing wrong with liking men, hehe..."
