Zheng Ce and Bai Xiaoyu sat in a window in the porridge room. Because it was still early, there were no fixed customers in the porridge room except for the students who came to buy takeout to take away. The two sat face to face.
As before.
Zheng Ce and Bai Xiaoyu both had blood-colored faces after staying up all night. The boss personally served the soup to the two, then looked at their expressions and said, "I stayed up late last night, right? Pork liver and red date soup,
Replenish qi and blood, count me."
Bai Xiaoyu tried hard to curl the corners of her lips and said with a faint smile, "Thank you, boss."
"Well, why are you polite to me?"
After the boss said something, he turned around and was busy with other things.
Bai Xiaoyu picked up the spoon and scooped the red dates floating in the soup cup in front of her. When she saw Zheng Ce on the opposite side, she didn't move, but just turned her head and looked out the window. She hesitated for a while, raised her head and said softly, "Drink some soup."
”
"Yeah." Zheng Ce responded softly, but did not turn his head.
Bai Xiaoyu felt a little confused. She couldn't even drink the fragrant soup in front of her.
Silence is like an infectious disease that spreads around the two people.
Neither of them spoke until the boss walked over again with a tray.
Put down two bowls of lean eggs and lean meat porridge and four side dishes, and the boss said, "When you are full, go home and rest."
Bai Xiaoyu nodded, and Zheng Ce also turned around.
After the boss left, Zheng Ce picked up the chopsticks, habitually added a lotus root slice to Bai Xiaoyu on the plate she was holding, and then said, "Eat."
Bai Xiaoyu's heart choked, and finally couldn't help it and said, "Zheng Ce..."
Zheng Ce raised his head and looked at Bai Xiaoyu. Bai Xiaoyu's eyes were filled with a lot of desire but stopped. Just when Zheng Ce thought that at a certain moment, maybe Bai Xiaoyu would tell him all about it, she said, "What happened in the hospital."
, isn't it very difficult to deal with?"
Zheng Ce couldn't tell whether he was empty or what. He opened his thin lips and replied, "I don't know."
Bai Xiaoyu said anxiously, "I heard that the other party is a member of the Zhong family. Will they pursue the matter?"
“It doesn’t matter.”
Zheng Ce lowered his gaze, picked up a spoon, and scooped the stewed sticky rice grains.
Bai Xiaoyu frowned and said, "This is related to your future. How can you just stop it if you don't care?"
Zheng Ce paused his movements slightly, then looked up at Bai Xiaoyu and said, "Do you care?"
Bai Xiaoyu's throat choked. Because of distance, she could see the fatigue in Zheng Ce's eyes as clearly as she could.
After pursing his red lips and being silent for a few seconds, Bai Xiaoyu then spoke, "Zheng Ce, even if we can't be boyfriend and girlfriend, we are still friends. It's normal for me to worry about you and care about you."
Zheng Ce frowned and said subconsciously, "But I don't want to be just a friend!"
Bai Xiaoyu felt mixed emotions and sighed secretly. She said, "Can we not discuss this matter for now?"
Zheng Ce was tired all night, with red blood in his eyes. She wanted him to finish his meal early so that he could go back and rest.
Zheng Ce's chest was slightly ups and downs, and he didn't seem to have much strength to entangle. He lowered his eyes and scooped up a spoonful of porridge, put it into his mouth mechanically, and then ate it with a chewy wax.
Isn’t that the same thing about Bai Xiaoyu? It was not until today that she was in the scene that she felt what things were different. What was once so delicious, but now because of the different moods of people, she has become unaware of the taste.
The two of them fell into silence again, and the warm porridge was emitting a smoky mist, scattering the expressions on each other's faces.
After dinner, Zheng Ce took out his wallet to pay the bill, and Bai Xiaoyu also took out his wallet. The boss smiled and said, "Nurse Bai, let Dr. Zheng check the bill. Which of you two is with whom, there is no need to worry about it."
After saying that, the boss blinked to Zheng Ce and signaled that he would help him, but what the boss didn't know was that the most embarrassing thing now was that this matter was about it.
Sure enough, Zheng Ce's expression was a little stiff. He didn't say anything, but just took out a hundred pieces. Bai Xiaoyu also took out a hundred pieces and said, "I'll do it."
Zheng Ce said, "Do you really want to be so clear about me?"
Bai Xiaoyu paused, Zheng Ce handed out the money, and the boss collected the money to settle the bill.
After paying the money, the two of them left the porridge shop together. The morning sun was mixed with the fine dust in the air, and they enveloped the two of them together. Zheng Ce was silent all the time, so Bai Xiaoyu had to speak first, "Go home and have a good sleep."
Well, don't think too much."
Zheng Ce turned his head and looked at Bai Xiaoyu and said, "Where are you living now?"
Bai Xiaoyu had moved out of Zheng Ce's apartment. He knew it. Bai Xiaoyu replied softly, "Hotel."
Zheng Ce was silent for a few seconds, and then said, "Are you with him?"
Bai Xiaoyu paused in her heart and said, "I."
Zheng Ce's eyes changed slightly, as if he regretted his words, he said, "Xiao Yu, I'm sorry."
Bai Xiaoyu said, "It's okay, go back."
She obviously didn't want to say anything more. Zheng Ce saw it and said nothing in the end. The two of them took a taxi and disappeared in front of the hospital.
After Bai Xiaoyu returned to the hotel, she took a shower and fell on the bed. She was tired and embarrassed. She closed her eyes and realized that she felt like she was back when she was very young. Once, Zhang Zhiyuan came to pick her up and said she wanted to take her.
She was very happy to go out for dinner. The place where she ate was a very famous island restaurant in Thailand. She ran out to play when she finished her meal, but somehow she fell into the water. When she was a child, she couldn't swim.
Although it is summer, the water is still cold. The feeling is like the fear of death at any time...
Fortunately, Zhang Zhiyuan's bodyguard quickly discovered the drowning Bai Xiaoyu and rescued her. When Bai Xiaoyu, who was covered in a blanket, was taken to Zhang Zhiyuan without asking about his well-being, but just instructed his subordinates to teach Bai Xiaoyu to swim as soon as possible.
Since then, Bai Xiaoyu has learned a truth: the way to overcome fear is to find a way to conquer fear and make fear no longer a threat.
During this sleep, Bai Xiaoyu slept very heavily. In her dream, she always wandered in her teenage years. Zhang Zhiyuan found all kinds of people to teach her various skills, but... she did not teach her.
How to be a normal girl who can cry and laugh.
Buzz buzz ~~
Something was constantly ringing in his ears. The disturbing sound gradually dragged Bai Xiaoyu out of his deep dream. He opened his eyes in a daze. It was already dark outside. Bai Xiaoyu touched the phone next to him and looked at it.
The word Zheng Ce is displayed.
After pausing, Bai Xiaoyu answered the phone and Zheng Ce's voice came from his cell phone, "Xiaoyu..."
His voice was low and hoarse, obviously different. Bai Xiaoyu was completely sleepy and couldn't help but say, "Zheng Ce, what's wrong with you?"
Zheng Cegan said in a hoarse voice, "Xiao Yu, I feel uncomfortable, can you come here?"
Bai Xiaoyu was a little hesitant, but at this moment, Zheng Ce's cough came from his phone, and Bai Xiaoyu said, "Are you at home?"
Zheng Ce nodded, then added, "The house you lived in before."
Bai Xiaoyu's heart tightened and then said, "Okay, wait a moment, I'll come over right away."
Hang off his phone, Bai Xiaoyu put on jeans and a white shirt, stepped on a pair of white canvas shoes and walked out.
The hotel she stayed in is not far from the hospital. In fifteen minutes, Bai Xiaoyu arrived. She left the key when she left, so after she arrived, she could only ring the doorbell. She stood at the door and rang the doorbell. After waiting for a while, she saw someone.
Come and open the door.
There was no light on in the room. Bai Xiaoyu took advantage of the light outside and saw Zheng Ce who came to open the door. His cheeks were normal red and his lips turned white.
"Here you come."
Zheng Ce turned his body and let Bai Xiaoyu enter the house.
Bai Xiaoyu raised her hand and patted the switch on the wall. The room was bright. She turned to look at Zheng Ce and said, "Where are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Zheng Ce was in a daze, his eyelids were heavy, and he replied, "He felt a headache, and he felt a little speechless when he felt aroused."
Bai Xiaoyu raised his hand and touched Zheng Ce's forehead. His forehead was hot. Bai Xiaoyu frowned and said, "I have a fever. I guess it's a cold. Let's go, I'll take you to the hospital."
Fortunately, the hospital is opposite and I will arrive in five minutes downstairs.
Zheng Ce shook his head and whispered, "I don't want to go out."
Bai Xiaoyu said, "You really have a fever and the temperature is a bit high. You'd better go to the hospital for a look. Just get an injection tomorrow. Don't get it bad."
Zheng Ce still shook his head and walked into the house while saying, "I don't want to move."
Bai Xiaoyu followed him into the inside, Zheng Ce sat on the sofa. After a few seconds, he might feel that he was too heavy, so he simply fell down and lay down.
Bai Xiaoyu stood aside and said, "You just slept here?"
Zheng Ce closed his eyes and said no.
Bai Xiaoyu felt powerless, so she turned around and walked into the bedroom, took out a blanket to cover Zheng Ce, and then went to the cabinet under the TV to rehearse medicine. Everything was so natural, even saying that she was about this room,
More familiar than Zheng Ce.
After feeding Zheng Ce, Bai Xiaoyu turned around and wanted to leave. Her wrist was pulled by someone. The hot temperature directly burned Bai Xiaoyu's heart through her skin. She turned her head and saw Zheng Ce on the sofa.
Susus raised his eyes and said, "Are you leaving?"
Bai Xiaoyu felt ache in her heart and was silent for a moment. Then she replied, "No, I'll go see what's in the kitchen. You can't take medicine on an empty stomach. I'll go and make something."
Zheng Ce did not let go and said, "You won't leave?"
Bai Xiaoyu nodded, "I won't leave."
Zheng Ce pulled Bai Xiaoyu's wrist nostalgic. Bai Xiaoyu felt uncomfortable and said softly, "Don't worry, I'll stay here to take care of you. You sleep for a while, I'll cook for you."
When Zheng Ce heard Bai Xiaoyu's promise, he slowly withdrew his hand and closed his eyes tiredly.
Bai Xiaoyu turned around and walked towards the kitchen, opened the refrigerator, and found that there were no other vegetables to eat except for the jam and bread she bought before.
