Chapter Eighty-Three: Affectionate
My head was hurting, my eyelids were getting heavier and heavier, and I didn't know when I fell asleep.
It wasn't until a cold touch came from my forehead that I gradually became conscious. Then I felt that my throat was about to dry up, and I couldn't help but shout: "Water, I want water." ”
After a while, I felt myself being sat up, and then the moist liquid poured into my mouth, and I sucked greedily until my dry throat was relieved. I opened my eyes slightly.
I felt that the person in front of me was a little blurry, but the smell of his body was familiar to me.
He's finally back.
Soon I closed my eyes weakly again, and after a while I fell into a deep sleep again.
When I woke up again, it was already early the next morning.
When I opened my eyes, I saw Zou Zichen sitting at the head of the bed with his eyes closed. It seems that I haven't slept all night, and my eyes are a little blue.
I gazed at his deep countenance, deeply engraved in my heart, maybe soon he would not want me.
He seemed to feel my line of vision, slowly opened his eyes, and was a little surprised to see me looking at him in a daze.
"Wake up," he leaned over, put his hand over to my forehead, and muttered, "the fever has finally subsided." Then, he took the water from the bedside and lifted me up with one hand, "Drink more water." ”
I listened to him obediently, and drank all the glass of water he handed to my lips, but I was actually thirsty.
After drinking the water, he put the cup back on the bedside, helped me down again, and then lay down too. He took me into his arms, put me on his arm, and didn't speak, just hugged me.
"When did you come back?" I couldn't help but ask softly.
"I came back last night." His voice was a little hoarse, and he gently stroked my hair with one hand.
"You haven't slept all night." I suddenly remembered that vague shadow.
"Why don't you call me when you're not feeling well?" He didn't answer the rhetorical question, and his tone was a little lonely.
I don't know where his loneliness comes from.
I put my face to the base of his ear and whispered, "I didn't know I would have a fever." ”
"You went there yesterday, how can you get heat stroke?" He asked again.
"I didn't go there, so I went out to have a meal with Su Qing, but I didn't drive, I took a taxi." I replied.
He didn't ask, just tightened his hand around my waist.
I rubbed my lips at the base of his ear and asked in a low voice, "Have you been busy these two days?" ”
"Hmm," he replied softly.
And I couldn't help but feel funny, since I still wanted to test him.
"You sleep, I'm sticky and want to take a shower." I gently pushed him away and tried to sit up. But he held me by the waist and wouldn't let me go. Then he opened his eyes, turned his face slightly sideways, and faced me, his breath entangled, and those eyes were as deep as a cold pool, staring straight at me. I could see myself in his pupils, his face a little gloomy, but his eyes clear.
"I'm going to Beijing in two days, will you come with me?" He asked suddenly.
I couldn't help lowering my eyelids and tugging at the corners of my mouth, "If you go to work, I won't go, and I'll drag you back." ”
His eyes were still looking at me for a moment, and there was an emotion in his eyes that I couldn't understand, and then they became unwavering.
"You can take a shower." He let me go.
The sudden withdrawal of his arms made me a little lost. But I got up anyway and went into the bathroom.
When I came out of the bathroom, Zou Zichen was no longer in bed, and I walked out of the bedroom and smelled the smell of seafood porridge. I couldn't help but swallow my saliva. Last night, I didn't eat any grains, and I had a high fever, which was a lot of physical exertion, and my stomach was empty at this time.
"Come and eat." Zou Zichen shouted as he stood on the other side of the kitchen.
I hurriedly walked over.
Zou Zichen had already served two bowls of porridge and put them on the dining table.
I think it's a little guilty, from the moment I entered this door, he asked me to be in charge of his three meals a day, but so far I have cooked a meal for him, but he has not been less. Looks like I'm going to have to fulfill my obligations.
"Will you be able to come back in the evening?" I sat down at the table and turned to ask him.
"Not sure." He walked over with a glass of water.
"If you can come back, I'll put to good use the cooking skills I've learned over the past month in the evening," I laughed.
He sat down across from me and looked at me lightly, didn't speak, and after taking two sips of water, he said, "Let's talk about it then." ”
I was a little disappointed, "Oh. ”
I don't know why, I feel that since just now, Zou Zichen's eyes have changed when he looks at me, and he has become faint without any emotion.
After only one day, it seemed like the distance between us had changed back to the original one.
After drinking the porridge, Zou Zichen took my temperature again, and made sure that the fever had subsided, and then he went to the company.
After he left, I sat in the living room and spent the morning, and it was not until I felt hungry that I realized that the morning had passed. I was just about to go out for a walk, but suddenly there was thunder outside, the sky was dark and oppressive, and I saw that a heavy rain was coming, and I dismissed the idea of going out.
At this time, the mobile phone on the table suddenly rang, I took the mobile phone weakly, it was an unfamiliar number, I frowned, until my mobile phone number was changed by Zou Zichen, and very few people called me.
I picked up the phone a little curiously, "Hey." ”
"Are you cold?" The woman's soft voice carried a cold tone.
My heart skipped a beat, this was Ouyang Xue's voice, uh...... How could she have my phone number?
"Sorry, you made a mistake." When the words fell, I hung up the phone with a weak heart, and my chest rose and fell. I couldn't sit still, so I got up and went to the fridge to get a bottle of water, unscrewed it and took several sips. The pictures of those original matches playing junior on the Internet instantly appeared in my mind...... I'm crazy.
I walked back and forth in the living room a few times, but I couldn't calm down. After thinking about it, I still called Zou Zichen.
As soon as the phone rang, it was answered.
"Zou Zichen," I called him as soon as the phone rang.
The other end didn't speak.
I bit my lip and called out again, "Zou Zichen, a woman called me just now." ”
The other end still didn't speak.
I suddenly felt that something was wrong, and I hung up the phone.
Now I can't sit still.
At this time, there was a thunder outside, which scared me, and the mobile phone rang at the same time at this moment, and I was startled, and I almost didn't throw the phone out of my hand. I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when I saw the call.
"Hey, Su Qing." My voice was a little low, but Su Qing's voice was a little hurried in my ears.
"Little boy, where are you now?"
"In the apartment, what's wrong?" I asked.
Su Qing paused at the other end and replied, "Lu Zhengnan came to me just now, and he ...... He seems to know about you and Zou Zichen. ”
I got up from the couch and said, "Ah, he...... How did he know?"
"I don't know," Su Qing sighed lightly, "He seems to have just come back from Beijing, and he looks like a dusty man." ”
"What did he say?" I asked again.
"He asked me, have you been in touch with me lately, and where do you live now? Say he has an urgent need to see you. Su Qing's tone was quite anxious, "I told him, I don't know where you live now, and he asked me again, saying if you are with Zou Zichen." I was taken aback, and he seemed to understand it all at once. ”
I sighed deeply, thinking that it would be good if he knew, so he would die.
"Little boy, if you don't see him, tell him about the matter." Su Qing said again.
I said bitterly, "Su Qing...... I don't want him to know the truth. ”
"Alas, I really regret that I shouldn't have given him a message in those years." Su Qing suddenly became annoyed, "I can't bear to look at his lonely back when he leaves." ”
"It's none of yours, it's all my fault." My heart aches.
"By the way, I gave him your new number, I'm sorry, I really can't refuse him." Su Qing said apologetically.
"It's okay, it's not a way to hide like this anyway, I'll see you sooner or later." I smiled wryly.
After closing the line, my heart was even heavier.
Thunder roared outside, and it suddenly began to rain heavily.
I walked to the window and looked out at the pouring rain, and it rained in my heart.
After a daze in front of the window, I went back to the bedroom to change my clothes, and even forgot to take my umbrella and went out.
I think it's better for me to take the initiative to find Lu Zhengnan.
As soon as the car left the community, I saw a figure standing on the side of the road, long and familiar, standing motionless in the rain.
I was shocked, pressed the window, and the rain slanted in.
"Zhengnan, why are you standing there?" I shouted at him, but he still didn't move.
Immediately, I opened the car door and ran towards him.
Lu Zhengnan's face was pale, his whole body had already been wet by the rain, and he looked at me in a daze, as if he was a little disbelieving and his eyes were a little stunned.
I pulled him into the car and turned around and headed back to the apartment. He sat in the back seat and snorted.
Back in the apartment, I pulled him into the living room, ran to the bedroom and got a set of Zou Zichen's clothes to change for him first.
"Do you really live with him?" Lu Zhengnan stood in the middle of the living room, dripping with water all over his body, looking at me in a daze, and the heavy sadness in his eyes made it difficult for me to speak.
I walked up to him and handed him the clothes, "Let's change them first." ”
He jerked my clothes off my hands and grabbed me by the shoulders, "Little boy, you told me this is not true. ”
"Zhengnan, calm down, change your clothes first, you'll catch a cold like this."
"Why is it him, you know him...... Someone who has a girlfriend. He looked at me and couldn't listen to me.
"Yes, I'm so cheap, I told you a long time ago that I don't deserve you like this at all. It's you who are stupid. I clasped my hands and whispered into his gaze.
Lu Zhengnan calmed down when I yelled at him, his soft eyes drooped down, and then let go of me, bent down to pick up the clothes on the ground, and asked in a low voice, "Where can I change clothes." ”
Looking at his lonely demeanor, I couldn't bear it and took him to the bathroom at the gym. While he was changing, I rushed to the kitchen to cook him ginger soup.
Fortunately, Sister Chen just bought a lot of ginger yesterday, I cut a piece, washed the pot, put water and ginger, turned on the fire, took out rock sugar from the refrigerator, and added two pieces.
When I turned around, Lu Zhengnan didn't know when he had changed his clothes and stood behind me, he was wearing Zou Zichen's shirt a little looser.
"Changed."
He stood there staring at me in a daze, and the affection in his eyes made it impossible for me to look directly.
"I'll cook you some ginger soup," I raised the corners of my mouth at him.
"You didn't think you used to do that." Lu Zhengnan walked over with a hint of sadness between his eyebrows.
