I'm not from the same world as you

Xu Cen was a little uncomfortable lying down, Duan He took two pillows and put them on the head of the bed, and then helped Xu Cen to sit up a little.

Duan He's hands were very light, and he was careful not to hurt Xu Cen. Xu Cen looked at Duan He who was moving carefully, and he found that he would feel at ease only when Duan He was by his side.

After covering Xu Cen with the quilt, Duan He sat back on the stool again, "How do you feel, does your stomach still hurt?"

Xu Cen smiled, "It doesn't hurt anymore."

Xu Cen was actually in pain, but he didn't want Duan He to worry, so he didn't say anything.

Seeing Xu Cen smile, Duan He felt relieved, "Now you know how to laugh? Do you really not plan to live with this way of drinking?!"

As long as Duan He thinks of Xu Cen drinking under his nose until he enters the hospital, he will be angry, not only angry at himself for not being optimistic about Xu Cen, but also angry at Xu Cen for treating his life like nothing.

Xu Cen's eyelids pulled down. At that time, he probably didn't expect that kind of emotion. It came too suddenly and too suddenly. It was the first time he felt what is called the greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment. His heart dropped from a high altitude. At the bottom of the valley, it slowly turned into despair. The guilt he felt towards his sister for many years and the sadness of living alone almost overwhelmed him at that moment.

If there was no Duan He, he might really have died there.

It is impossible for him to say these words to Duan He, Duan He can't understand his mood, and Duan He can't deeply feel the fear and sadness deep in his heart, and he doesn't want Duan He to worry about his affairs. He also worried a lot.

Xu Cen smiled helplessly, "I still have you, why don't you want to live?!"

Duan He was stunned, what did Xu Cen mean by this?Duan He looked at Xu Cen, his eyes full of inquiry, "What do you mean?"

"It means you are very important to me." Xu Cen said seriously. He didn't want to make it too clear. Only he knew what Duan He meant to him, and he didn't intend to let Duan He know. He is content to stay by Duan He's side with peace of mind.

Duan He couldn't understand Xu Cen's eyes, so he could only take the words literally, "You are also very important to me."

"Is it as important as your parents?" Xu Cen's words were a subconscious thought, but he didn't expect to say it. Before Duan He could respond, Xu Cen smiled awkwardly, "Just kidding , never mind."

"You and my parents are very important to me." Duan He's calm words reached Xu Cen's ears, and Xu Cen looked at Duan He in surprise, Duan He, do you understand?

Duan He understands the anxiety in his heart. What happened in the past two days made him feel that no one really cares about him, and there seems to be no one around him.

Duan He's figure reassures him, Duan He lets him know that there are still people in this world who care about him, but Duan He is never alone, he has friends and relatives, and a lot of people around him are willing to circle around him However, Xu Cen is only one person.

So he was always anxious, he didn't want to compare with Duan He's parents, he just wanted an answer, a definite answer, even if Duan He lied to him.

Duan He's answer reassured him completely, no matter what this sentence meant.

According to the doctor's order, Xu Cen didn't eat anything for the first two days. After his stomach condition improved, the doctor told Xu Cen that he could eat some liquid food, but it must be light.

Duan He was worried about the food in the hospital and restaurants outside, and always felt that he could cook better, but he was not at home and had no mother to cook for him. Even if he could cook some, there was no place for Duan He to worry about.

Duan He thought about it, the only person he knew well in this city was his mother-in-law in the snack street. I don't know if he could borrow her mother-in-law's kitchen.

Duan He first called his mother-in-law and told her about Xu Cen and the use of the kitchen, and her mother-in-law readily agreed.

With the permission of her mother-in-law, Duan He hurried to the nutrition department on the fifth floor to consult the doctor Xu Cen about what to eat in this situation, and wrote down the precautions and ingredients that the doctor said, and then went straight to the supermarket.

After buying something, Duan He came to her mother-in-law's store. The mother-in-law was very happy to see Duan He. She hadn't seen him for a few days. The mother-in-law missed Duan He very much, but when she thought of Xu Cen's situation, she couldn't help but sigh.

Xu Cen used to come to her place for dinner almost every day. How could such a quiet and polite child suddenly become so ill.

He heard Duan He say a lot about Xu Cen's situation, but this time Duan He didn't tell her in detail. He only knew that Xu Cen had a stomach problem. How could he be hospitalized with stomach bleeding during the National Day holiday?

Thinking about it, the mother-in-law felt sorry for Xu Cen.

Duan He processed all the ingredients he bought, crushed the tofu, chopped the beef and shiitake mushrooms, and because he wanted to chop as much as possible, Duan He accidentally scratched his hand.

Blood kept bubbling out, Duan He made it big, and the wound was quite deep.When the mother-in-law saw it, she hurriedly dragged Duan He over there, and disinfected it with alcohol. When the alcohol went up, Duan He almost cried out in pain.

The mother-in-law sprinkled some anti-inflammatory powder on Duan He's wound, and then wrapped it with a band-aid.

The mother-in-law looked at Duan He worriedly, "Why are you so careless?! It's better not to touch the water with your hands for the time being, and the inflammation will be bad when the time comes. Let me help you."

Duan He pushed away her mother-in-law's hand and declined her kindness, "Grandma, it's okay, I'll do it myself, I want to cook a meal for Xu Cen, this little injury is fine."

"You child, then be careful, try not to touch the water with that finger, tell me if there is any inconvenience, I can help you."

Duan He nodded. Since he has decided to take good care of Xu Cen and protect Xu Cen, he will do everything to the best of his ability.

Duan He processed the ingredients, put water and rice in the pot, and crushed the rice grains with a spoon after the rice was fully cooked, and then put the tofu powder, beef powder and mushroom powder.

Finally, simmer slowly over low heat. The doctor said that Xu Cen can only eat liquid food now, so it is best not to have too large rice grains in the porridge, but also to supplement more protein and eat more low-fat food.

The porridge in the pot still had to be boiled, Duan He sat down with his mother-in-law, and the mother-in-law asked, "Is your hand okay?"

Duan He shook his head, "It's okay, just a little injury."

"Don't take small injuries seriously. Small injuries can become serious illnesses when they accumulate together. You young people don't take your body seriously. Just like Xu Cen, stomach problems can be big or small. As a result, it ended up in the hospital now." The mother-in-law said a little sadly.

"Mother-in-law, Xu Cen didn't do it on purpose, and he's not feeling well. I just want him to get better soon." Duan He said.

"Yes, it's true that you will get better soon." The mother-in-law looked at Duan He and asked, "Little Duan, can mother-in-law go to the hospital to see Xu Cen?"

Duan He nodded with a smile, "Okay, you will be happy when you go to Xu Cen, I can see that he likes you very much."

The mother-in-law's eyes were full of kindness, "I know you young people have your own secrets, and you don't like to tell adults, you just like to hold it back, Duan, whether it's you or Xu Cen, listen to mother-in-law, don't hold it back too much Yes, it will suffocate."

Duan He looked at his mother-in-law. He didn't know what her mother-in-law meant. After so much, her mother-in-law had experienced so much, what did she see, and how much she saw. Why didn't he dare to guess, and he didn't dare to ask.

What the mother-in-law said was right, whether it was in his heart or in Xu Cen's heart, there were too many hidden things, and these things were so compulsive that he wanted to release them, but he couldn't find a way.

He can only keep his mother-in-law's words in his heart, "Mother-in-law, I understand."

The mother-in-law patted Duan He's head, "Okay, don't think so much, and don't take too seriously what I'm a bad old woman, the times are different, you should have your own world."

Duan He didn't talk anymore, his own world?When will he have a world that belongs to him and is not disturbed by anyone?

The mother-in-law went to look at the porridge boiled in the pot, and turned down the heat a little bit, "Simmer for another two or three hours and it should be enough."

Duan He nodded.

The mother-in-law looked at the time. There was a seminar at the school today. I specially asked her to listen to it and express some opinions. Although she didn't really want to participate in some school and scientific research, the school leaders said that it was related to the development of the school. , so in the end she agreed.

The time is coming, she has to clean up, she gave the store key to Duan He before going out, "Remember to stir the porridge in the pot with a spoon after a while, and just lock the door when it is done, and put the key In your place, if you need anything, just come here by yourself, I will take time to see Xu Cen tomorrow."

Duan He sent his mother-in-law away, and prepared to stir the porridge in the pot according to the time given by her mother-in-law, so as not to overcook it, but also to make the porridge more creamy for Xu Cen to digest.

The porridge is cooked in a casserole, and there is no insulation layer on the handle of the lid. Duan He directly lifted the lid with his hands. The moment he touched the lid, a burning sensation spread from Duan He's fingers to his whole body.

As soon as the lid was lifted, the steam inside burst out completely. Duan He didn't notice for a while, the steam was sprayed on his hands and face completely.

Duan He was in so much pain that he threw out the lid in his hand. With a "bang", the lid of the casserole fell to the ground and shattered to pieces.

Duan He was convulsed by the heat from the lid and the steam, especially when the steam hit his face, he felt his entire face was burnt.

Before Duan He had time to clean up the mess on the ground, he put his hands under the faucet and rinsed them with cold water for a few minutes, and the burning sensation on his hands was slightly relieved.

Duan He raised his hand and saw that there were already several blisters on his fingers, and it hurt when he moved a little. Duan He endured the pain in his hand, temporarily turned off the fire, and went to wash his face.

His face has been burned by the steam to an abnormal red color, and it hurts his heart when he touches it. Duan He is really miserable seeing himself like this, but in the end he is still stupid, how can he be so stupid as to directly Hold the lid by hand?It doesn't matter if you burn yourself, what if Xu Cen's porridge is knocked over?

Duan He avoided the debris on the ground, went to turn on the fire again, then stirred the porridge in the pot with a spoon, adjusted the fire to a low fire, and let it continue to boil. Duan He couldn't help but rejoice now, luckily the pot There was nothing wrong with the porridge in it.

The lid of the pot was smashed by him. I don’t know if I can buy a matching pot lid to compensate my mother-in-law. The most important thing now is that there is no lid. The steam in the pot keeps running outside, and the porridge made is not so delicious. up.

Duan He searched around and found a glass lid. It looked like it should be the lid of an iron pot. It was a bit big for a casserole, but it can only be used now.

After Duan He put the lid on the pot, he endured the pain and began to clean up the mess on the ground. After finishing, Duan He's face was covered with sweat, and where the sweat flowed, the burnt part of his face became even hotter.

Duan He took the time to look at it a few more times, and finally sprinkled some salt, but did not dare to sprinkle too much. After turning off the fire, Duan He used a thermos bucket he just bought to take out the porridge. It's mushy, but it smells good, Xu Cen should like it.

It was still raining lightly on the way there, Xu Cen's medical bills have not yet been paid, and he will need to be hospitalized for follow-up treatment, which will cost a lot of money, so now Duan He saves as much as he can.

Duan He rode Wang Mengni's bicycle to the hospital, and there was no way to cover it when it rained. When he arrived at the hospital, his body was soaked and his hair was dripping.

Duan He went to Xu Cen's ward after wiping it off for a while. Xu Cen was still lying on the bed and sleeping. He hadn't had much energy for the past two days, and he had lost weight. Duan He felt distressed when he saw it.

The sound of Duan He opening the door woke Xu Cen up, and when Xu Cen opened his eyes and saw Duan He's appearance, he was stunned.

Duan He's face was still red, his body was wet, and he was still holding a thermos in his hand, he was very embarrassed.

Xu Cen sat up propped up, Duan He came over and poured out the porridge from the thermos bucket and handed it to Xu Cen, and asked with a smile, "Smell, is it delicious?"

Duan He stretched out his hand with a Band-Aid on it, and a few blisters on his fingertips. Xu Cen pulled Duan He's hand over and asked with a frown, "Is this made from cooking porridge?"

Duan He pulled out his hand, he didn't want Xu Cen to worry, and he didn't want Xu Cen to feel guilty for what he had done, "It's okay, you can taste it first and see how it tastes."

Xu Cen ignored the porridge brought to him again, but reached out to caress Duan He's face, but he didn't dare to touch it, he was afraid of hurting Duan He, "How did you get this face?"

Duan He sighed, "I'm fine, this is caused by the steam on my face when I took off the cover, it's not serious."

"It's not serious, it's so popular, it has to be disfigured to be serious? Do you think you are a roast duck?"

Duan He smiled, and patted Xu Cenxu's hand on his face, "It's really all right, let's have porridge, it's been cooking for hours."

Xu Cen grabbed Duan He's hand, the blisters on his fingers, and the band-aid that had ooze blood from riding a bicycle. Duan He's hands were as messed up as his own. Duan He actually made himself into this porridge, he felt sore and uncomfortable.

"Am I worth it?"

"There is no value or not, only whether I am willing or not." Duan He paused, and then said, "Besides, you are worth it."

Xu Cen looked at Duan He, "I'm not worth it."

Duan He put down the porridge, and stroked Xu Cen's face with his uninjured hand, "Everything is worth it just because I like it."

Xu Cen's eyes widened, what did Duan He say?He, he said, like?Is it the one he understands like?Duan He...

Just as Xu Cen was about to speak, Duan He covered his mouth with his hands, "Okay, stop talking, let's have some porridge."

Duan He let go of Xu Cen and brought the porridge in front of Xu Cen again. He didn't want to hear Xu Cen's answer. He just wanted to tell Xu Cen what he wanted. Just like that, he silently guarded Xu Cen's side, but he didn't want to hear Xu Cen personally say no.

That would make him feel very uncomfortable, so why not let Xu Cen answer at all.

Xu Cen took the porridge from Duan He, what did Duan He mean just now?What exactly does liking mean?He has confirmed that Duan He likes girls, and Duan He also said that they are just friends, so what does it mean now?

Duan He didn't let him speak, so he could only stare at Duan He suspiciously, Duan He was uncomfortable being stared at by Xu Cen, and regretted what he just said, but the words had already been spoken, so there was no reason to take them back.

Duan He stirred the spoon in Xu Cen's bowl, then scooped up the porridge and handed it to Xu Cen's mouth. Xu Cen just looked at him without opening his mouth in the slightest.

Duan He sighed and put the spoon back into the bowl, "It's just too uncomfortable for me to hold it in my heart. You don't need to take my feelings to heart, as long as you don't hate me."

What does Duan He mean?What do you mean it's too uncomfortable to hold back in your heart?What do his feelings mean?Didn't Duan He just say it casually?But is it the truest feeling in his heart?

So, Duan He likes him?Yeah?

Xu Cen was taken aback by the conclusion he came to, he hastily put down the bowl in his hand, grabbed Duan He's shoulder with both hands, "What do you mean?"

Duan He was taken aback by Xu Cen's sudden movement, "I, I..."

Xu Cen looked into Duan He's eyes, he didn't dare to ask, he was afraid of receiving an answer that was different from what he thought, and he was afraid that once he asked, his feelings would be exposed in front of Duan He, and the two of them have been in love ever since. Like a stranger.

Xu Cen's heart beat fast, Duan He's words of liking made him not want to wait any longer, Xu Cen looked into Duan He's eyes, "Did you just say that you like it?"

Duan He looked at Xu Cen and nodded hesitantly, Xu Cen's nose was sore instantly, but he still had concerns, "What about your parents, have you considered it?!"

"I thought about it, but I should also have my own life, right? I can't live up to their expectations and live a lifetime, and I don't think about what will happen, what will happen, and I know you can't Give me a result, I just want to guard this relationship well."

Duan He gave it all up, he was a little irrational by Xu Cen's emotions, why should he live in such a depressed way, why should he keep everything in his heart, just like the mother-in-law said, maybe Xu Cen would not understand , but he would feel less uncomfortable if he said it.

And he never asks for anything.

Xu Cen's eyes were already filled with tears, "Don't you regret it? This is counterintuitive..."

"My own feelings don't care about his common sense."

Xu Cen went straight to hug Duan He, tears fell on Duan He's shoulders, Duan He was stunned, although he didn't know why Xu Cen did this suddenly, but he still hugged Xu Cen back, Xu Cen's back There is no meat left, and the bones inside can be felt through the clothes.

Xu Cen sniffed and whispered in Duan He's ear, "I can give you a result."

Before Duan He could react, Xu Cen smiled and whispered into Duan He's ear, "Because, I like it too."
