Epigenetic edge

Chapter 12 Empty

Echizen Nanjiro boiled hot water, found rice and cooked porridge.It was already dawn, and Ye Shenyi washed and changed her clothes and came down from upstairs.He looked at Echizen Nanjiro, feeling speechless for a moment.

He returned the clothes to him: "Sorry, the clothes were stained."

Echizen Nanjiro put it back on without looking at it: "Ah, it's okay. Sit down first, I'll serve the porridge."

Ye Shenyi shook his head: "Thank you. You can use it, I have no appetite."

After he finished speaking, he went straight to the entrance, turned his back to Echizen Nanjiro and said while putting on his shoes, "I'll go back to the hospital first. I have to apologize to the doctors and nurses for causing trouble to them. Oh, senior too, please forgive me." .”

Ye Shenyi whitewashed the peace, and Echizen Nanjiro said down the slope: "Ah, there will be no next time."

"Yes, there won't be any." Ye Shenyi said after putting on his shoes.

Echizen Nanjiro did not go with Ye Shenyi.After all, there is still the kitchen that hasn't been cleaned up. Ye Shenyi, the master, has left, so he can't just leave it alone.

In the afternoon, Echizen Nanjiro brought hot soup to the hospital.Ye Shenyi was wrapped in a green hospital gown and lay on the bed as if falling asleep.Echizen Nanjiro went in quietly, afraid of disturbing Ye Shenyi.He carefully sat down in front of the hospital bed, and Ye Shenyi didn't wake up when the sun went down.Echizen Nanjiro watched the last sunset, but left anyway.

Ye Shenyi opened his eyes, he rushed into the bathroom, and within a short while there was his suppressed coughing and vomiting.Echizen Nanjiro stood outside the door, he just stood quietly for a while, then left.

In the next few days, Ye Shenyi suddenly became lethargic, and could sleep through the whole afternoon after taking a nap.Even the conversation with Echizen Nanjiro was in the evening, and a few simple greetings were enough.

On this day, it was raining lightly outside, the weather was getting colder gradually, and even the sky was getting late.Echizen Minamijiro came to the hospital early in the morning, and besides bringing hot porridge, he also smuggled in a Karubin.

He didn't knock on the door, but pushed open the door of the ward quietly.He has already planned that for young people, the morning is their best time to sleep.No matter how uncomfortable Ye Shenyi would be, he would sleep for a while at this time, and then he would wait for him to wake up.Said he was sleepy, feed him first and then talk.

Then he saw a figure from behind.Ye Shenyi was sitting by the window wearing a light green hospital gown, he seemed to have always liked that position.He didn't move, just quietly propped his chin and looked at the gray sky outside the window. The room was very quiet, only the sound of raindrops falling outside.

"Meow~" Carubin's soft cry came from the bag, full of impatience.

Echizen Nanjiro hurriedly closed the door and carried it out: "Shh, don't bark, don't bark."

The sound of the bolt being locked woke up Ye Shenyi, his arm was completely numb, and he couldn't move for a while.It was the feeling of not being able to control one's own body, the one still conscious hand holding the cold wrist of the other hand and letting it go.One hand can still feel the other hand but there is no temperature, and there is no feeling even being held, as if half alive and half dead.

His eyes went black for a while, and he couldn't see clearly for a while, and there was a "buzzing" sound in his ears.He couldn't help leaning over to the window and closed his eyes.He felt that his mind was swollen and empty, and it was difficult to think about things.

Echizen Nanjiro walked over with Karubin in his arms, he touched Ye Shenyi's forehead, it was not hot at all but cold.Ye Shenyi subconsciously wanted to wave his hand away, but his brain was too slow to react and his body was too slow, Echizen Nanjiro retracted his hand one step before him and put Carubin into his hand.Ye Shenyi touched her fluffy breathing body and subconsciously dragged her into her arms, if she fell, it would be to blame.

"What?" he asked slowly.

Echizen Nanjiro didn't answer him, he bent over and carried the cat and the cat back to the bed.He wrapped the quilt around Ye Shenyi's body, and Carubin became Ye Shenyi's best hand warmer.Carubin lay in Ye Shenyi's arms, using his body to warm Ye Shenyi's hands and legs.

Ye Shenyi regained his strength, pressed his forehead, and couldn't help frowning: "Why did you bring it here? Will the hospital let you in?"

Echizen Nanjiro served porridge and said, "Smuggling cats. I didn't like them very much last time. I brought them here to relieve your boredom."

Ye Shenyi touched Karubin's head, and Karubin spread out into a cat cake to take a nap.He looked at the kitten's upturned whiskers, and felt the warm touch of the fluff under his hands.His gaze was so soft that he didn't realize it himself, Echizen Nanjiro couldn't help but curled his lips when he saw him purse a smile.Seems to be working fine.

"It's very cute." Ye Shenyi said.

Echizen Nanjiro was afraid that the hot porridge would burn his hands, so he stirred it with the spoon, sat on the side of the bed and said, "I will raise one if I like it."

Ye Shenyi bent his brows and eyes, his haggard and thin face actually showed a radiance in the dark room.Like the gentle and beautiful smile back then, Echizen Nanjiro blew on the porridge and handed it to Ye Shenyi.

Ye Shenyi hugged Karubin and refused to let go, saying, "I haven't brushed my teeth yet."

He combed Karubin's hair with his fingers, and Karubin purred thinly from his throat, which seemed to be very comfortable.Have a small animal?If, if it is them, they will always be there.However, if you can't take good care of them and can't stay with them all the time, don't delay them in the first place.

Echizen Nanjiro put down the porridge, he grabbed his hair and went into the bathroom.Ye Shenyi was stunned again, and when he came back to his senses, Echizen Nanjiro came over with a wash cup and a plastic basin.Ye Shenyi didn't understand, so: "What are you doing?"

Echizen Nanjiro handed the mouthwash cup and the toothbrush filled with toothpaste to Ye Shenyi: "Quickly brush, while the temperature is just right."

Ye Shenyi threw off the quilt in embarrassment and hurried to get out of bed. Echizen Nanjiro didn't have any hands free, so he couldn't suppress him, so he could only shout: "Hey, boy, I took everything."

Ye Shenyi bowed to him in his busy schedule: "I'm sorry."

Afterwards, he went into the bathroom with the toiletries to freshen up, and Echizen Nanjiro looked at Karubin who had been left behind.Echizen Nanjiro looked up and listened to Ye Shenyi vomited while brushing his teeth, and the porridge was already warm when he came out.

Echizen Minamijiro poured him a new bowl, and ate the cold one by himself.

"New recipe, milk porridge, how does it taste?" Echizen Nanjiro asked.

Ye Shenyi smiled politely: "Aunt Lunzi's craftsmanship has always been very good."

Echizen Nanjiro was stunned, he seemed to want to say something, but he still swallowed it: "Ah, yes."

"Well, I'm sorry to bother you like this."

Echizen Nanjiro moved his lips: "It's okay."

"I'm bothering senior these days. Grandma Longzaki sent a message saying that she will come over today. She is free for the next few days." Ye Shenyi said.

Well, of course he knew that the old woman was free, but he would still ask him to come over when she was free.Even if you say so, young man, I'm afraid I have no choice but to come.Echizen Nanjiro agreed: "It's okay. But since the old lady is here, I'll leave first."

"Okay." Ye Shenyi hugged Karubin to him, "Be careful on the road."

Echizen Nanjiro knew that he didn't want to see himself, so he stuffed Carubin back into the bag and said, "Just give this to my teenager. If you like it, go to the pet store and buy one together."

Ye Shenyi shook his head and said, "I'm too busy to take care of myself, and I can't stay with it all the time. I still can't. Thank you."

"Then let Karubin play here for a while. Bring toys to it, and it won't be noisy. Be careful not to let the nurse find out." Echizen Minamijiro said.

"No." Ye Shenyi said goodbye to Karubin who poked his head out of the bag, "That's enough, let's take it home early. It should miss its owner."

Echizen Minamijiro, you don't seem to get it all the time.Both you and Carubin belong to others, and you comfort the starving man with cakes from other people's plates, but you are never ready to give it to him.Such behavior is no different from torture.If you have never thought of sharing some of the cake on other people's plates with me, don't keep taking it out to let me see its beauty and smell its sweetness.

In the afternoon, Ryuzaki Sumire came, bringing a bouquet and something suitable for Ye Shenyi to eat now.They chatted about the surgery. The doctor hasn't confirmed the final time yet, but it will probably be in the next few days.

When Ryuzaki Sumire was about to leave, she remembered again, and asked Yagami with a smile, "Did that guy Nanjiro take good care of you?"

Ye Shenyi didn't quite understand how to say this, she maintained a smile and said, "Recently, I'm bothering Senior Echizen."

Sumire Ryuzaki smiled and said, "I'm relieved if you're happy. Nanjiro seems to be a man of indecency, but he's actually very careful in his work."

When Ye Shenyi heard these words, he realized something, his voice became tense, and he asked, "Did Grandma Longzaki ask him to come here?"

"Ah, this, yes. I know you have always liked him. Just ask him, I hope he can take you out." Coach Ryuzaki said here and sighed, "Xiaoyi, I don't know what is Something went wrong. Yamato and I are working hard. After so many years of hard work, we can’t get into your heart. You still shut us out. Maybe it’s what happened to you when you were young, and it’s also because I didn’t have time to care at that time You. Compared with the people around us, you are more immersed in your own thoughts. I learned that Nanjiro came back from the United States, so I asked him to enlighten you. This time, I also hope that he will take care of you so that you can Be happy."

Ye Shenyi closed her eyes, outside was the pouring rain, and inside was Coach Ryuzaki's sigh.He suddenly felt that his body and heart were empty, leaving behind the appearance of a skin that could act on its own.

"Grandma Ryuzaki, I'm sorry, and thank you very much."
