Su Chen knocked on the door gently, but he didn't hear a response inside, and it was pitch black inside, and he couldn't see anything clearly.

But just standing at the door, a strong smell of wine permeated, Su Chen frowned slightly, carefully fumbled and turned on the light in the living room, and then saw the scene indoors.

It was a two-bedroom house, very old, with peeled off walls and a faint yellow glow.

The furniture is very simple, even simple, a boxy wooden dining table, two benches, the kitchen is in the corner of the living room, and half of the walls are blackened by oil smoke.

There were beer bottles scattered on the table, and the glass shards on the floor had not yet had time to be cleaned, as if the owner had hurried out.

The lights are dim and dim, giving people a very oppressive and hopeless feeling.

This is...... Shen Mingji's home.

Su Chen's lips pursed slightly, frowned, and slowly walked into the room.

"Is anyone home?" Su Chen shouted indoors, but no one responded.

But it was also just after her voice fell that a dull cough was faintly heard, and she looked up at the source of the sound.

In a room about the size of the storage room, there is a person lying on the floor, and I can't really see it, I can only vaguely see the figure curled up into a small ball in the nest.

Alone, it seems to separate itself from the whole world.

"......" Su Chen slowly walked into the small storage room, and when he got closer, he clearly saw who the person lying on the floor was.

It's Shen Mingji.

It's just a little different from Shen Mingji when I first met.

When he first met, Shen Mingji's face was full of indifference and alienation, and he wrapped himself tightly with a layer of hard armor, he couldn't touch the outside world, and the outside world couldn't touch him, his dark gray eyes were full of gloom, and he was not mature like a person of his age.

Now Shen Mingji is groggy and sleeping, the cold and alienation have collapsed, and now the short black hair is wet and sticking to his forehead, his face is sickly red, his eyes are closed, his eyelashes are thick and dense, and now his two thin lips are tightly pursed, even when he is asleep, he is frowning.

There were several more bruises on his neck and cheeks, as if they had been pulled raw by something.

Su Chen looked at Shen Mingji's appearance, stretched out his hand and gently put it on Shen Mingji's forehead, it was extremely hot.

He had a fever and seemed to want to get through it.

What Su Chen didn't notice was that the moment her hand was put up, Shen Mingji's eyelashes trembled slightly, and the arc of her movements was very slight.

It is false to say that he is not distressed, and Su Chen can't tell what it feels like in his heart.

Get up and go to the living room to find something you can use.

It was also at the moment when Su Chen turned around and walked to the kitchen, Shen Mingji, who was lying on the bed, opened his eyes slightly, his eyes were faint, as if confused, as if looking at Su Chen's back in confusion.

Yesterday, he stood on the side of the street and waited for the day.

Didn't wait for anything.

It's like a casual joke from someone else, but he took it seriously.

It's like the stupidest fool in the world, even God laughs at him.

He thought she would never show up again.

Shen Mingji lowered his eyes and clenched the things in his palm, the hairpin of the carrot, and the whole person curled up.

The most cherished thing......

Is it that as long as this thing has been with him, she will remember to show up for him.

But what if you don't have it?

Will she still come?
