Chapter 16: Sleeping Alone
Seeing that the May Day holiday was approaching, Chen Dao asked Liang Yun if he wanted to go out to play, and after getting the answer of "I don't want to go out and be crowded, I just want to stay at home and sleep lazy", he decided to go to the activity company with his friends to work part-time during the long holiday, doing about 12 to 15 hours a day, and the salary is paid daily.
He had spent a lot of money renting that house, and he was in desperate need of more income now.
Although Liang Yun took the initiative to help him share the expenses, she also paid for the meals, drinks, and transportation expenses for going out this month, so he didn't have any psychological burden on it.
But then he has to continue to pay the rent, go out to play or something, and it is impossible to always let Liang Yun pay, he doesn't want Liang Yun to spend a lot of money after being with him, and he will live too tightly, so he has to open up as much as possible and increase income.
Anyway, as long as Liang Yun is by his side, he can sleep peacefully every day, and he can face everything energetically the next day.
But on April 30, things changed.
Liang Yun's mother called her and asked her to hurry up and buy tomorrow's ticket home, her grandfather accidentally fell, and now the hospital has issued a critical illness notice and will have surgery tomorrow.
Chen Dao was a little confused, in this case, he naturally couldn't follow Liang Yun home.
First, he had already promised his friend that he would go to a part-time job together during the May Day period, and if he changed his hexagram temporarily, it would be difficult for his friend to find a suitable candidate immediately; The second is that he has just been with Liang Yun, and her parents don't know that this situation is not suitable for a first-time visit.
Early the next morning, Chen Dao took a taxi to take Liang Yun to the train station, and then went to work part-time with friends.
After working until more than ten o'clock in the evening, Chen Dao returned to the rented house, looking at the empty bed, but he was a little nervous.
It was the first time he had faced a bed with him since moving into this house, and the first time he had spent the night alone.
"Are you done?" received a WeChat voice from Liang Yun on his mobile phone.
"Well, just got home. How is your grandfather, did the surgery go well? Chen Dao replied.
"The doctor said that the operation went well, but whether my grandfather can survive it depends on the next 24 hours."
After chatting with Chen Dao about his grandfather's situation for a while, Liang Yun felt a little more relaxed, and asked instead, "Can you sleep tonight?" ”
"It should be possible, but I really can't drill the bottom of the bed." Chen Dao then sent a "hard work, struggle" GIF emoji to the past.
"There is a drawer under our bed, how can there be a bottom for you to drill." Liang Yun made an expression covering her face.
"There is a bed in my heart, and there is a bed everywhere."
"Don't be skinny! Seriously, do you want us to have a video call, put the phone next to your pillow, I'll talk to you, and I'll hang up when you're asleep. ”
"No need, I'll just play your song later. Are you in the hospital or at home, are your parents next to you, don't make a noise with them, you can also find a chance to rest for a while, don't wait to get tired. ”
Chen Dao knows that video cannot replace the feeling of Liang Yun by his side.
After saying goodnight to Liang Yun, Chen Dao, who had finished washing, changed his pajamas and lay down on the bed.
He glanced at the empty pillow, which was indeed a little empty.
Put the mobile phone next to the pillow and play the song "Dislocation Time and Space" sung by Liang Yunqing, the familiar song sounded, and the feeling of emptiness eased a little, but the body muscles still couldn't completely relax.
Inside the room and outside the window, all the subtle movements and various sounds will be clearly captured by him, and the whole person will enter a state of alert.
After lying down for more than half an hour, Chen Dao opened his eyes, sat up from the bed, turned off the music player on his mobile phone, and sighed helplessly.
Still can't do it......
I thought that I had slept in this room with Liang Yun for more than a month, maybe I had already adapted a little, and I could sleep in the bed by myself.
But now it seems that the only thing that allowed him to sleep peacefully was Liang Yun.
Chen Dao walked around the house, and finally took out all the clothes in the closet and put them on the bed, then got into it himself, lay down with his knees crooked, and slowly fell asleep.
……
In the hospital corridor, Liang Yun, who had just exchanged goodnight with Chen Dao, was still looking at her mobile phone in a daze, living with Chen Dao for a month, and she knew very well that her boyfriend's biggest weakness was sleep.
"Xiao Yun, are you living with your boyfriend?"
A female voice suddenly sounded next to her, which scared Liang Yun so much that she almost jumped up.
When she looked back and saw that it was her cousin, she breathed a sigh of relief and whispered, "Cousin, when did you come over, why did you whisper, it scared me." ”
"I've been here all the time, but you're having a good time talking to your boyfriend and you haven't noticed me." My cousin smiled and said, "Hey, when did you get a boyfriend?" When I came back from the Chinese New Year, I asked if you had a boyfriend, and you also told me that you had a lot of schoolwork and didn't think about falling in love for the time being? ”
"That's it...... Just talked about it this year. Liang Yun said with some embarrassment.
"I just talked about it this year, and I'm already living together?" The cousin said strangely, it would not be strange if this was someone else, but Liang Yun's family has always been very strict, and she herself has been a relatively conservative style since she was a child.
"Don't tell my aunt about this, otherwise she will definitely tell my mother, and then my father will know, then I will be unlucky." Liang Yun explained.
"Don't worry, I won't say it. But I just heard you talking to your boyfriend, why do you still seem to have to coax you to sleep? You're not looking for a 'giant baby', are you? Let me tell you, it's tiring to fall in love with this kind of boy, and it doesn't matter how handsome you are, and sooner or later you won't be ......able to stand it," my cousin admonished in a serious tone.
Liang Yun couldn't cry or laugh: "He is not a 'giant baby', when we are together, he is basically taking care of me." He's just a little bit of a problem sleeping, heck, I can't explain it in a word, anyway, if you see him in the future, you'll know, it's definitely not a 'giant baby'. ”
"Looks like you really like him." The cousin nodded.
When the two were chatting, they didn't notice that at the corner of the aisle, less than four meters apart, a middle-aged man with a majestic appearance and a look of more than fifty years old was standing quietly, listening to the chat between the two, his brows furrowed.
His name is Liang Jianguo, and he is Liang Yun's father.
……
Liang Yun's grandfather's postoperative recovery was very good, he survived the dangerous period, and he woke up, and his condition was basically stable.
The family members breathed a sigh of relief, and after arranging the escort, the young people who rushed back temporarily were not in a hurry to go back, and were ready to stay at home until the end of the long vacation.
But Liang Yunji hung on Chen Dao, and after making sure that his grandfather was fine, he booked a ticket for the evening of May 2 and prepared to rush back.
At noon, Liang Yun took advantage of Chen Dao's part-time job to have a break in dinner, and video chatted with him for a while, and saw that his eyes were bloodshot and his state was very bad, which was very different from the state of being energetic every day after moving and living together, and he was like a different person.
She was distressed.
