Chapter 32: "Don't Mess Around"
Because Shen Zhiyi had a fever, they did not leave with the army that day, but stayed in the homestay for another night.
Shen Zhiyi, who touched Gu Zhiyu's hand as he wished, lay in the room with a drowsy head, staring at the ceiling above his head and smirking.
The hand curled up in the quilt seems to still have the thin cool touch of a man's fingers at the moment.
Although he used the quilt to cover the corners of his mouth that couldn't help but rise, Shen Zhiyi still tightened the corners of his mouth, holding back his excited emotions at the moment and eager to jump up and down.
The house was very quiet, not long after eating the porridge just now, Shen Zhiyi was going to get up and take medicine, but the careful Gu Zhiyu found that the cold medicine that Shen Zhiyi took had expired.
In desperation, Gu Zhiyu had no choice but to get up and go outside to find a pharmacy to buy medicine.
Shen Zhiyi reached out and touched his mobile phone from the pillow, and as soon as he pressed the screen, he saw a reminder message from the editor.
She closed her eyes, swiped left the editor's message to Do Not Disturb, and then turned off her mobile phone, threw it aside with peace of mind, and obediently waited for Gu Zhiyu to come back.
There are many B&Bs near Shuiyuan Mountain, but there is no pharmacy found along the way.
Maybe you have to go to the market dozens of kilometers away to find the medicine, but Gu Zhiyu came with the bus, and now there is no car, and it is even more impossible to walk barefoot.
But fortunately, the owner of the B&B was quite enthusiastic and offered to take Gu Zhiyu to the pharmacy by bicycle.
So, Gu Zhiyu looked at the tricycle in front of him and fell into deep thought.
The boss skillfully got into the car, patted the seat next to him, and looked at Gu Zhiyu with a smile:
"Come on, lad."
“......”
Gu Zhiyu was silent for a moment, but still chose to get into the car.
The cool autumn breeze blew on his cheeks with the speed of the tricycle, Gu Zhiyu was blinded by the oncoming wind, and his slightly dry eyes narrowed involuntarily.
There was an inquiry from the owner of the B&B: "Young man, is the one with the fever your girlfriend?" ”
Gu Zhiyu was stunned for a moment and denied: "Not yet." ”
"Not yet?" Because of the strong wind, the voice of the owner of the B&B unconsciously raised a lot, "Isn't that almost right?" ”
Gu Zhiyu looked at the potholed gravel road in front of him, smiled and did not speak.
Seeing that the young man next to him didn't speak, the owner of the homestay didn't feel embarrassed, and even persuaded Gu Zhiyu to take care of himself:
"Young man, I see that you are also very interested in that little girl, and you are still in the process of pursuing?"
Listening to the boss's words, Gu Zhiyu raised his eyebrows slightly.
I'm quite fond of her.
He chuckled, and for a moment he couldn't tell if he was chasing her or if she was chasing him.
In just two days, the girl first asked if she could chase herself, but within a few minutes, she came to ask herself for sweetness.
I didn't get this sweetness, and I froze myself and had a fever again.
Now it's okay, not only to let him, the pursuer, take care of her suitor, but even help his suitor cook porridge, coax his suitor to drink porridge, and help his suitor buy medicine.
Wanting this, the corners of Gu Zhiyu's mouth raised slightly upwards without even noticing himself.
After a long time, he let out a low "um".
"Eh, young man, let me tell you, chasing girls should play straight, girls' minds are more sensitive, sometimes she doesn't tell you if she has something on her mind, you have to feel it yourself."
The owner of the B&B honked the horn of the tricycle and said babblingly: "I told you that when I chased my daughter-in-law, my daughter-in-law was the village flower of our village at that time, and many boys liked her. ”
"But, although I don't have the ability to make money, and I look average, I'm just relatively straight."
"Eh, but this straight is not what you young people call a "straight man" or anything, my straight means that I can say whatever I have, and when I see that my wife is unhappy, I will say it directly, and ask directly. When I quarrel or something on weekdays, I will also tell my wife my thoughts very intuitively. In this way, the contradiction between the two will be resolved, and that day can go on again. ”
"Oh, it's a bit far," the boss smiled, "Anyway, let's get down to business, I think that girl is also smart, young man, you are also good-looking, the two of them standing together are simply talented and beautiful, and they are a good match, so ah, listen to my uncle's advice——"
"Make your heart clear as soon as possible, don't miss it and regret it for a lifetime."
While the two were talking, the tricycle gradually arrived at the market, and the owner found a parking space to park the car.
Gu Zhiyu nodded thoughtfully as he got out of the car:
"Got it."
......
When Gu Zhiyu returned to the room after buying the medicine, Shen Zhiyi was lying on the bed happily watching short videos.
Hearing the sound of swiping the card, she put down the mobile phone in her hand and followed the sound.
After seeing Gu Zhiyu carrying the medicine bag, she bent her eyes and called sweetly, "Professor Gu." ”
"Well," Gu Zhiyu came to the bedside with the medicine, and glanced at the girl, who was oozing dense beads of sweat on her forehead, "Are you better?" ”
Shen Zhiyi shook his head and nodded again: "It's a little better, but it's still a little feverish." ”
"Take your medicine first."
Gu Zhiyu took out the cold medicine he had just bought from the bag and put it on the bedside table, then took the cold water cup on the side, turned around and went into the bathroom to pour out the water, and then walked aside to pick up the hot water kettle and pour warm water again.
He said: "The school bus has already gone back, and I just called Chen Su and asked him to pick us up tomorrow." ”
Looking at the warm water handed over by the man, Shen Zhiyi carefully reached out and took it.
She took a sip of water and moistened her somewhat dry throat: "Okay, okay." ”
"You have a good rest tonight," Gu Zhiyu handed the pill to the girl, "Don't stay up late." ”
Shen Zhiyi nodded obediently, reached out and took the two pills from the man's hand, and ate them.
For the rest of the time, Gu Zhiyu sat on the sofa in the room with Shen Zhiyi, the reason was because Shen Zhiyi wanted to watch horror movies to relieve her boredom, but she didn't dare to watch it alone in a strange environment, so she made a random reason to let Gu Zhiyu accompany her.
Fortunately, this horror film is not scary for Shen Zhiyi, and even made her almost fall asleep at one point.
In the second half of the film, Shen Zhiyi's eyes were all on the man sitting on the sofa.
Gu Zhiyu sat on the dark gray sofa, his body leaning back slightly, and his hands naturally resting on his knees.
The man's gaze was fixed on the projection of the movie being played, and the only sound of shallow breathing between the two of them was in the quiet room, except for the occasional eerie music.
Looking at the man's handsome side face, Shen Zhiyi's mind couldn't help but fantasize that one day in the future, he would be able to lie in Gu Zhiyu's arms and watch the thriller.
Preferably in the summer, when it rains rainingly, the two of them just hug each other in a dimly lit room.
The sound of rain falling on the glass window is accompanied by scary movies on TV, and he is surrounded by people he likes.
Seeing the horror of the moment, she could put her arms around the man's neck and scream and bury her head in the man's shoulder.
Such a scene is desirable just thinking about it.
The corners of Shen Zhiyi's mouth unconsciously raised a beautiful arc upward.
She's really looking forward to it.
After watching the horror movie, Gu Zhiyu stood up from the sofa, and he leaned his head to look at the girl nested in the quilt: "If there is nothing to do, I will go back to the room first." ”
After saying that, he didn't forget to lift his wrist and glance at the watch on his wrist.
After all, it's not too early.
Seeing that Gu Zhiyu was leaving, Shen Zhiyi hurriedly called out to stop the man: "Professor Gu! ”
Gu Zhiyu's footsteps paused slightly, and he turned his head to look at her: "What's wrong?" ”
Shen Zhiyi hesitated for a moment before he said, "I—I'm a little hungry......"
In fact, her original intention was just to greedily want a man to accompany her more, and as for saying "hungry", it was just a casual reason for her to want to keep a man.
Gu Zhiyu asked, "What do you want to eat?" Porridge or something else? ”
Shen Zhiyi swallowed his saliva and looked at the man standing at the end of his bed: "I want to eat ......"
"You."
“......”
Gu Zhiyu took a deep breath, and sighed helplessly at the end, with some warning in his tone:
"Don't mess around."
He looked at the girl in front of him, and his heart was helpless except helplessness.
He couldn't figure out the girl's brain circuits, obviously she was lying on the bed with a high fever, and she could still say some tiger and wolf words to tease him.
"I'm not messing around," Shen Zhiyi, who was sick, was more squeamish than ever, just because of the man's words with a slight warning, her eyes involuntarily misted with water, "I ......"
Shen Zhiyi turned his head away and said what was in his heart:
"I just want you to spend more time with me......"
What Shen Zhiyi didn't expect was that Gu Zhiyu actually accompanied him all night by his side.
It's just that Shen Zhiyi fell asleep again in a daze later, but Gu Zhiyu stayed by her side and didn't close her eyes all night.
The next day, Shen Zhiyi's fever subsided.
When Chen Su arrived in the car, when he saw Gu Zhiyu who came out of Shen Zhiyi's room, the look on his face was not to mention how wonderful it was.
Because of the sweat, Shen Zhiyi proposed that he wanted to take a shower and wash his hair before leaving, so Gu Zhiyu took Chen Su back to his room and waited.
While Gu Zhiyu went back to the room to pack his luggage, Chen Su followed behind him and couldn't help but gossip:
"I'll go, Brother Yu, you're developing so fast?"
Gu Zhiyu closed the suitcase, and his gaze swept lightly over his face:
"What do you think?"
Chen Su sat down on the sofa next to him and teased Gu Zhiyu:
"Didn't I say it, brother, Miss Shen has a fever, so you took advantage of others?"
Gu Zhiyu glanced at him, raised his eyebrows in disbelief and asked:
"Am I such a person?"
Chen Su pursed his lips and replied in a low voice:
"Aren't you......."
