cold flame

Gao Wenxuan did not expect Lin Mo to agree very readily. When Lin's mother suggested that he go to live in his own house, he thought for a few seconds before gently nodding in agreement.Afterwards, he drove Lin's father and Lin's mother home and picked up some clothes by the way, and then drove him back to his residence.

As soon as I got home, I turned the heating to the highest, and the chill in the room was gradually driven away.Gao Wenxuan saw that Lin Mo went straight to the sofa and sat down, so he went to turn on the TV, which was basically easy to watch, and let the sounds from the uninteresting programs fill the somewhat quiet living room.

"I'll put water for you, take a bath first." Gao Wenxuan sat on the sofa diagonally opposite Lin Mo, without waiting for his response.

He sat there quietly, the gauze on his chin was particularly glaring at first glance, it was a fragility and helplessness that did not belong to him.Those usually cold, even a little haughty eyes are now like glass beads abandoned in the corner, covered with fine dust, staring at the TV screen without focus.There are only two hands deliberately folded on the knee, with the palm upwards holding the right hand wrapped in white cloth, indifferent to everything around.

Gao Wenxuan didn't say anything else. He got up and took the box full of Lin Mo's clothes to the room to sort out, and then went to the bathroom to turn on the hot water. Due to Lin Mo's trauma, his right hand was inconvenient, so a bathtub was naturally more suitable than a shower.

"Momo, it's fine."

There was a sound of footsteps, and Lin Mo appeared at the door. He stood outside the door and scanned around before coming in. He stared at Gao Wenxuan and said, "How can I wash if you don't go out."

"How do you wash your clothes without taking them off? You can't take them off by yourself like this. I'll help you fix them before going out."

Lin Mo frowned and said, "I'll do it myself."

"Are you sure?" Gao Wenxuan's eyes moved to his sweater collar.

Not being able to touch the injured hand, and having to pull it out of the clothes with small cuffs, it is really difficult to operate with only one hand, Gao Wenxuan said slowly: "It will be troublesome if you touch the wound, I will Come help me."

Lin Mo didn't speak, as if acquiescing to his suggestion.

The bathroom was steaming hot, and the clean mirror was covered with mist, vaguely reflecting the two people standing in front of the bathtub.Gao Wenxuan was wearing a one-piece white shirt, and the sleeves were half rolled up because he had just tested the water temperature. He stretched out his hand to hold the cuff of Lin Mo's left hand, and reminded: "Take this hand out first."

Lin Mo bent his arm according to the words, and put his left hand into his clothes smoothly.Gao Wenxuan put down one of his empty long sleeves, took a step forward, and grabbed the left and right hem of the opponent's clothes with both hands. He obviously felt the body under the cloth was unconsciously stiff. A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and the movements of his hands did not stop until Lin Mo's head came out from the collar that was pulled up.

Lin Mo subconsciously took a step back with his upper body facing Gao Wenxuan, but Gao Wenxuan didn't care at all, as if his words were mixed with heat and blowing towards him, he said in a deep voice, "Be careful with this hand, Take it easy."

He stretched the elastic cuffs to the maximum with his hands, and then let Lin Mo pull out his arms little by little. Fortunately, he didn't touch the wound. After finally taking nearly twice as long to take off his shirt, fine sweat broke out on Gao Wenxuan's forehead.

The fair skin glowed pink under the gradual influence of water vapor, and the thin body did not make people feel weak, but there was a sense of tenacity due to the straight back.The orange light warmly stuck to the skin, Gao Wenxuan stared at the flush on Lin Mo's cheeks calmly, his eyes slid down, and glanced at the beautiful collarbone under the neck.

"Pants……"

"I don't need your help." Lin Mo interrupted him before he finished speaking, he looked up at Gao Wenxuan and said, "You can go out now."

"Okay, I'll put the pajamas there, call me if you need it." After finishing speaking, he walked out of the bathroom.

After the door was closed by Gao Wenxuan, Lin Mo began to take off his pants and quickly sat in the bathtub, not to drive away the chill, but to eagerly bury a flustered heart in the water. He closed his eyes to feel the comfortable water temperature. The relaxed body slid down, only to bounce up suddenly when the water touched his chin, but it was not because of the scars on his face.

The first thing he looked at was straightening his right hand resting on the edge of the bathtub.

The white gauze was tightly wrapped around half of the palm, and the faint pain in the palm reminded Lin Mo of the scene that happened in the afternoon.

"Momo, are you alright?" Gao Wenxuan asked standing at the door, seeing that it was about the same time, worried that Lin Mo would be inconvenient in the bathroom.

"immediately."

Lin Mo came back to his senses and realized that the water temperature was getting cold. He got up and wiped his body with the towel that the other party had placed beside him. He carefully put on his underwear and pajamas. It didn't take long for him to wear light and loose upper body. When he walked out of the bathroom, he saw Gao Wenxuan holding a notebook. The computer sits on the couch.

"Put this on." Gao Wenxuan took out a knitted coat on the armrest and put it on Lin Mo, rubbed his head and said, "Your face is injured, I will wash your hair for you tomorrow."

"No, I'll wash it in the store outside."

Gao Wenxuan smiled nonchalantly, and said, "Seeing that you haven't eaten much for dinner, are you hungry? I cooked some porridge for you."

"I'm a little sleepy." Lin Mo stood still, trying to use this excuse as a reason for his refusal.

"Then you go to bed first, and I'll bring it to you." Gao Wenxuan continued with a gentle tone, "If you still find it inconvenient, I can also feed you a spoonful."

Lin Mo glared at him and walked straight to the dining table.The plump white rice is mixed with preserved eggs and lean meat cut into small pieces, and the aroma of delicious food penetrates into the nostrils through the chopped green onion dotted on it, Lin Mo suddenly feels hungry.

"During this time, you have to eat lightly, eat while it's hot." Gao Wenxuan sat down opposite him, watching Lin Mo finish eating as before.

Putting down the long spoon, Lin Mo glanced at Gao Wenxuan who was smiling, and stood up without saying a word, ready to go to the room.

"Good night." Gao Wenxuan sat where he was, staring at the slightly thin back of the other party.

Lin Mo didn't respond, and left without looking back.

The next morning, Gao Wenxuan woke up and went to Lin Mo's room. He gently twisted his handle and pushed open the door. Seeing that the person on the bed was still asleep, he went to wash up and make breakfast. After finishing, he returned to Lin Mo's room and approached Look at him in the previous posture.

The slightly flickering eyelashes were not difficult for Gao Wenxuan to catch, but he was not going to expose them.He knew that Lin Mo was now in a self-enclosed state, and the great anxiety caused the other party to use this indifferent way to reject all contacts around him and lock himself in a corner.

I don't want to talk, and I don't want to show any emotions.Maybe Lin Mo can be left alone, but he must be by his side, this is the best way for Gao Wenxuan.

He reached out his hand to Lin Mo's forehead, the temperature was normal, so don't worry about him getting a fever from the cold water that he washed in the bathroom yesterday.

"I'll put breakfast on the dining table, remember to finish it." After leaving these words, Gao Wenxuan left.

Lin Mo opened his clear eyes only when he heard the sound of the door closing.He hadn't slept all night and couldn't even feel the slightest drowsiness, so he subconsciously chose to take a nap the moment Gao Wenxuan opened the door.

However, it was still found.

Lin Mo thought of the other party's actions just now, and raised his hand to touch his forehead, only feeling a little dizzy.He sat up and raised his right hand, turning his wrist slightly, the wound was still aching.

Baked bread, eggs and milk were placed on the dining table, and Lin Mo mechanically ate a few mouthfuls before clearing the plate.Alone in the huge living room filled with heating, he actually stared blankly at the piano leaning against the wall all morning.

Near noon, the aunt who was in charge of complex cleaning and cooking arrived with plastic bags of all sizes.She looked friendly when she smiled, and she introduced herself while wearing an apron: "You are Xiao Lin, right? My name is Cai, just call me Aunt Cai."

Lin Mo nodded, forced a smile, and left the living room to Gao Wenxuan's room while Aunt Cai was busy in the kitchen.

He didn't know why he came here, it was just a random thought.The off-white screen window is polar, the sun shines in and brightens the room. Lin Ran is a person who lives an elegant life. He arranges his bedroom in a simple and comfortable way. He doesn't even have the wedding photos that usually hang in the room after marriage. Just put two photos on the bedside table.

One is a new wedding photo. The demure older sister in a white wedding dress is sitting on a retro leather chair, with Gao Wenxuan standing behind her. Lin Mo intends to take a closer look at this photo. He picked up another photo of life.

It was taken when Lin Ran's family went on a trip together after graduating from the college entrance examination. Lin Mo stared at the slightly young girl in the photo, in a trance. For some reason, he missed his sister so much at such a time.

If he hadn't avoided the flower pot that fell from the sky yesterday, maybe it wasn't his own hand that was injured, and maybe it wasn't as simple as being injured, and he would disappear forever in this world just like his family members who passed away.

From the moment of life and death, he got the luck of being favored, and at the same time that this kind of luck was not real, he lost what he had been examining for a long time.The price is really too high.

"Xiao Lin, it's time to eat." The voice outside broke Lin Mo's thoughts.

He put down the photo and went to the dining area, and saw three dishes and one soup on the table, sweet and sour pork ribs, three delicacies tofu, fish-flavored shredded pork, shrimp and winter melon soup, all of which were his favorite dishes.

"Mr. Gao said that you can't eat too heavy food during this time, so I didn't put any spicy food in these dishes."

"Aunt Cai, I'm alone at noon, so I don't have to do so much."

Aunt Cai quickly took off her apron and said, "Oh, Doctor Gao said that you don't eat much in the morning, so let me cook a little more at noon. By the way, our grandson is here during this period, and I have to help take care of it every day." So I can only cook a meal at noon, but I will buy the dishes for dinner and put them in the refrigerator, I have already told Mr. Gao."

"Okay." Lin Mo dug a spoonful of tofu for himself.

"How is it? Is it to your liking?" Aunt Cai asked expectantly before leaving.

Looking at a table of delicious and well-prepared dishes, Lin Mo nodded and said, "Delicious."
