37. Little maid

Zou Liming began to babble and calculate the account for Chen Xiaoli: "I have to pay tuition, room and board, and miscellaneous expenses in high school, which add up to a lot, and it will cost thousands in another year." As for the children who went to college, even if they could work and study, Brother Li didn't want them to be as miserable as himself, and wanted them to focus more on their studies, and he had to give them some money every month, not to mention that there were smaller ones in the orphanage. ”

"He's an orphan?" Chen Xiaoli was stunned, she only knew that Li Kang was picking, but she didn't know that there was so much bitterness behind Li Kang.

He has just graduated, so he has to raise such a large family?

No wonder he is so himself, no wonder he is not used to seeing others spending money lavishly.

Chen Xiaoli couldn't help but feel a little sour when he thought of all the things before.

Zou Liming saw that Chen Xiaoli was stunned and immediately stopped, but he didn't expect Li Kang to never tell Chen Xiaoli.

He didn't go any further, and reading words and expressions was one of the essential survival skills for these orphans since childhood.

Li Kang on the hospital bed closed his eyes tightly, unaware of their conversation.

At this time, in the dimension that Chen Xiaoli and Zou Liming could not see, a light cluster roamed the room several times, and finally took advantage of Li Kang's dizziness and weakness to quietly burrow into his brain like an awl.

At the moment it got in, Zou Liming didn't notice it at all.

Only Chen Xiaoli suddenly turned his head to look at Li Kang on the bed, and he was no longer stunned.

As expected, Chen Xiaoli didn't see anything, although she sensed that there seemed to be something different just now.

At this moment, Li Kang on the bed felt a pain in his scalp, and then with a moan, he woke up faintly.

Chen Xiaoli suddenly no longer thought about the weirdness he felt before, but stepped forward quickly, stretched out his hand and probed Li Kang's forehead, just a cold sweat.

Chen Xiaoli didn't dislike it at all, but felt the temperature on Li Kang's forehead, and asked softly, "How do you feel?" ”

The voice was gentle for a long time, except for the initial phone call, Chen Xiaoli had never been so gentle in front of him.

And compared with the beginning, there is no trace of coldness in this voice.

Although Li Kang's scalp hurt like a pinprick, he was immersed in this gentle voice and had no time to care.

Like a dream, Li Kang, who was confused, decided that this was a dream.

So he closed his eyes comfortably again, and sure enough, the soothing gentle voice sounded softly again: "Are you still uncomfortable?" ”

What followed was a delicate rubbing of the forehead.

The palm on his forehead was gentle and delicate, just like the hand of his mother that Li Kang once fantasized about.

He unconsciously raised his head and rubbed, took the initiative to follow the touch of the hand, his eyes gradually opened, half-squinting to enjoy this rare tenderness.

Then, Li Kang suddenly felt that all this was too real, and the next second, his eyes were completely opened, and he looked at Chen Xiaoli, and the two of them were stunned in embarrassment at the same time.

Zou Liming didn't know when he had already left the room, and there was a faint embarrassment and ambiguity in the room of the two of them, Chen Xiaoli's face was red, and Li Kang's slightly dark complexion was also rare to show a trace of red.

The two looked at each other, then lowered their heads again.

"The ......"

"The ......"

The two spoke at the same time, and Chen Xiaoli glanced at Li Kang and smiled: "You say it first." ”

"Ahem." Li Kang cleared his throat and calmed down a lot, then he asked in a slightly hoarse voice, "When did you come back?" ”

"This morning."

After answering, Chen Xiaoli saw that Li Kang seemed to have something to say, so he smiled and encouraged: "If you have anything else to say, let's say it together." ”

"Then I'll tell you." Li Kang raised his head and quickly glanced at Chen Xiaoli, and then his eyes glanced away, Chen Xiaoli felt that his heart was beating a little fast, and his tender white hands couldn't help but pinch a corner of his clothes.

Li Kang finally asked: "You...... When will it be updated? ”

"No more!" Chen Xiaoli's face changed suddenly, and then Huo Ran got up, turned around and walked out of the ward angrily.

Zou Liming left, Chen Xiaoli also left, and Li Kang, who was left in the ward, began to reflect on himself: "It's really inhumane to urge a change just after I came back, it's only June 26th, and I'm not in a hurry, let's talk about it tomorrow." ”

Thinking like this, Li Kang pulled the quilt and closed his eyes tiredly.

He was now groggy and very tired, more tired than he had just had when he had caught a cold, and another wave of sleepiness hit him and he fell asleep again.

In the dream, Li Kang felt as if something had been hitting his brain, but that thing was always ejected, and in the process, his energy was constantly consumed, and he felt very tired and tired after a while.

The consumption was mutual, and the light lurking on the outer wall of Li Kang's brain became weaker and weaker, and finally became as if it would dissipate at the touch of it.

"I can't take it away!" With an old sigh, the light stopped, lurking quietly in his brain, as if recuperating.

It was only at this point that his brain finally relaxed completely, and then the whole person fell into a deep sleep.

"Doctor, why is he in a coma again, he just woke up." Chen Xiaoli, who had just returned to the ward, asked anxiously, Li Kang still had a tired look on her face in her sleep, which made her worried.

After some examination, the doctor found that his fever had subsided a lot, and it had changed from a high fever to a warm fever, so he judged: "I should be too tired to fall asleep, after all, I have had a fever for more than a day before, and my body consumes too much, so I will add another bottle of glucose to him." ”

Chen Xiaoli nodded, but her nervousness did not relax at all, and the woman's intuition told her that things were not so simple.

But she couldn't tell what was wrong, just a touch of worry on her brows.

Finally, Li Kang's expression finally eased, and Chen Xiaoli breathed a sigh of relief as if he had unloaded the burden on his heart.

After another two hours, Li Kang's fever can be regarded as completely subsided, but the person has not woken up, and during this time, Chen Xiaoli has been guarding his bed like a puppet.

Until Zou Liming came over to change shifts after work, Chen Xiaoli insisted on not leaving.

The food delivered by Zou Liming, Chen Xiaoli did not move.

"Miss Chen, Brother Li doesn't know how long it will take to wake up, so let's go to the side and rest first." Zou Liming pointed to the empty bed on the side and said.

Chen Xiaoli just shook his head silently.

It was at this time that Li Kang woke up: "What time is it?" ”

His voice was dry and hoarse, as if he hadn't drunk water in days.

He really hadn't drunk water for a few days, Chen Xiaoli hurriedly picked up the thermos cup on the side as if he had woken up from a dream, inserted a straw in it and handed it to his mouth.

Such Chen Xiaoli is intimate like a little maid.
