from my heart [last days]

In the next few days, as Su Shiqing said, Xie Congxin was so busy that he hardly had time to eat. Pei Ze went to the cafeteria every day to get a nutritious meal for two people and delivered it to him. He was either rushing to experiment or holding a small meeting. , often only a few bites can be eaten in a hurry.

This is an irresistible factor. Not only him, but scholars all over the world are doing their best. The Institute is the only place in the entire capital that does not set a curfew, and the lights are always on all night long.

His and Xie Congxin's blood samples have been sent to several other biological related research institutes, and Xie Congxin has even extracted hematopoietic stem cell samples.

Probably the relationship between Mr. Xu played a role, and no one raised any opinions on the fact that the blood sample sent was only [-] milliliters.

Xie Congxin stayed with Su Shiqing in the research institute every night until eleven o'clock, went to bed on time at twelve o'clock, and got up on time to wash up at six o'clock. Peng He, who can only get up until he is called, feels ashamed.

Pei Ze didn't know what he was busy with, and couldn't help him, so he sat outside the laboratory and waited for him most of the time.

Yan Shen sent a lot of tonic herbs, cordyceps sinensis, angelica ginseng, all of which could be added to the soup. Occasionally, Xie Congxin ate too little during the day, so Pei Ze borrowed the cafeteria to make him a soup and let him drink a bowl before going to bed.

It went on like this for nearly half a month, Xie Congxin lost a little weight, but fortunately his complexion was not bad.The relationship between him and Xie Congxin has also been greatly eased by this inseparable for half a month.Xie Congxin stopped avoiding him, and returned to the way he occasionally joked and spoke casually when they first met.

In mid-December, Mr. Liu sent new news. The press conference that Xie Congxin asked him to prepare had already made progress, and the time was set for the last day of this year.

"I will disclose all the results of our research on the virus and my antibodies so far," Xie Congxin explained to him, "There are still six news agencies left in Beijing, and they will print newspapers and send them out through the communication troops , sent all over the country—”

It was sunset when he said this, and he smiled slightly, standing beside the huge floor-to-ceiling glass in the corridor of the research institute, his already pale pupils were illuminated by the setting sun, and his eyes were dyed orange-red, as if a burning star The little sun, magnificent and radiant, dispelled all the darkness and haze, making Pei Ze's heart throb violently.

When did he start preparing for this matter, or when he had this idea, Pei Ze thought it should be after meeting the two Yuan brothers in Xiaji Town.Yuan Mingqiu's words made him realize that countless ordinary people in this world are in dire straits, looking forward to the end of the end times with difficulty.

What these people need is not only the supplies to maintain their lives, but also the hope of living.

And Xie Congxin didn't need to take on such a huge responsibility, saving the world was never anyone's obligation.

Although the antibodies in his body brought him benefits, it was more of a shackle, but Xie Congxin did not escape, he calmly tried his best, and took on everything he could. Pei Ze couldn't find words to describe such a good Xie Congxin.

In the dark night without light, there must always be someone who is not afraid of the heat, holds up the torch and becomes the direction to guide the way, leading all living beings to move on.

Xie Congxin will become the light of fire, the rising sun that pierces the darkness, and hope.

However, he suddenly developed a strong and secret selfish desire that could not be uttered.

——I want him to belong only to myself.

The day after Mr. Xu sent the news, Xie Congxin went to Shijiazhuang Temporary Quarantine Station to conduct the second clinical trial of antibodies.

The first test subject was Pei Ze, which was successful. The second test subject was an infected male with O blood type. During the incubation period, he signed a voluntary letter and was tied to an iron bed. Xie Congxin lay next to him On the single bed, Su Shiqing personally inserted the blood transfusion into their veins.

Then Su Shiqing withdrew and went outside the temporary isolation ward to wait for the results, leaving only Pei Ze just in case.

The scene was heavy, no one had the heart to speak, Xie Congxin closed his eyes, there were light cyan veins on the pale eyelids, and deep black cyan underneath, Pei Ze knew that he was very tired, he only slept for six hours a day, and he had to continue to supply He was too tired to study blood.

The test was unsuccessful.

When the blood transfusion reaches [-] milliliters, the incubation period is over, and the infected person's eyeballs are congested, and he struggles violently on the bed. Pei Ze quickly pours the closing potion obtained from Xie Lin for him, but fails to stop the zombie transformation——

Pei Ze pulled out the blood transfusion set connected to them, Xie Congxin opened his eyes, his chest heaved weakly, and his lips turned white.He wanted to sit up from the bed, but just as he got up, his eyes darkened due to low blood pressure, and he fell back down again.

Pei Ze walked over and hugged him.

Xie Congxin was so light that there was almost no weight. He leaned against his arms, glanced at the infected person, quickly looked away, and said calmly, "It failed."

"It will succeed," Pei Ze wanted to kiss his forehead, "I will succeed."

Xie Congxin's lips moved, but he didn't speak any more.

Pei Ze carried him out, and many people outside were waiting for the result. Su Shiqing was here, and Yan Shen was also there. Seeing Xie Congxin with his eyes closed in his arms, he guessed the result. Su Shiqing sighed: "Actually, we did Through the fusion test, the phagocytosis rate of Congxin's antibody to other people's viruses is less than [-]%...Captain Pei is very lucky."

Pei Ze felt the urge to kiss him again.

"Go to the next door, the blood bag is ready," Yan Shen took a deep look at him, "Just leave it to us."

Xie Congxin fell asleep during the blood transfusion, and didn't wake up until the [-]ml transfusion was over. Pei Ze carried him into the car back to Beijing.

Xie Congxin woke up once, ate something and went back to sleep. It was already dark when he returned to the hotel. Cheng Yinshang and Peng He were sitting downstairs waiting. Seeing that Xie Congxin fell asleep, they silently asked him the result. Ze shook his head at them and went upstairs with Xie Congxin in his arms.

Putting him on the bed, Pei Ze went to the balcony to smoke a cigarette.

He had never entered Xie Congxin's room before, it was probably a tacit understanding between them, limiting their relationship to the reasonable scope of partners, being open and frank, without any ambiguity, and not talking about anything other than business.

He was never dissatisfied with such a relationship.

Xie Congxin doesn't want to take a step closer, he doesn't force it, he knows his character, he can't be a good lover, and Xie Congxin deserves better, such as Yan Shen, or others, Xie Congxin will not lack suitors.

Su Shiqing said to him: "You carry the virus on your body, exchanging body | fluids with other people will cause infection. But there are not no exceptions, such as Cong Xin, who has antibodies in his body, you can't infect him."

Hearing these words, Pei Ze didn't have any special emotions. He couldn't have a relationship with anyone else. The only one who had any impulsiveness was Xie Congxin.

Su Shiqing added: "Of course I'm not asking you to fall in love with him. What I mean is that when there are anti-virus drugs in the future, this problem can be solved easily, so don't lose confidence in life."

But he didn't want to wait until then, or rather, he didn't need to wait, the Xie Congxin he wanted was right in front of him.

This kind of thought is like a tree seed buried under the ice, which breaks out of the ground in a short period of time and grows towards the sun. Such a relationship, even with some urgency, wants to completely own him.

Through the glass, Pei Ze looked at Xie Congxin's sleeping face on the bed through the starlight outside, and relieved some intense emotions with a cigarette.

Then he went back into the room, pressed a kiss on Xie Congxin's forehead, and said softly, "Good night."

The press conference will be a new turning point, and the imminent time has become the most powerful urging.

The assistant is in charge of making the presentation, but the content inside needs to be summed up by several leaders. It is necessary to convey the research results to the academic circle, and to use concise enough language so that ordinary people outside the academic circle can understand what they are talking about. The explanation of terms and wording involved in it all need to be considered.

Su Shiqing and the other two academicians were both old and couldn't bear it. Most of the burden fell on Xie Congxin. Xie Congxin had even less time to sleep, and had to stay in the institute until two or three o'clock every night.

People's energy is limited, Xie Congxin is not made of iron and copper, he often falls asleep in the car on the way back, and sometimes he can hold on, sometimes can't hold on, and can hold on for less than 10 minutes. Sometimes he went upstairs by himself, and when he couldn't hold on anymore, Pei Ze carried him up.

He didn't express any opinion on this, like a kind of acquiescence, even when he woke up in the elevator occasionally, he would not ask to get off, let Pei Ze carry him into the room, and then lay on the bed peacefully, waiting for Pei Ze to wring the towel Wipe his face.

It doesn't mean you can communicate with each other because of the same conditions, and it doesn't mean that you are worthy of liking because of how good the other party is.

Covering his face with a hot towel, Xie Congxin closed his eyes for a moment, and he could feel the change in Pei Ze's attitude.

In fact, it was very obvious that Pei Ze no longer avoided any possible physical contact with him, and the sight that fell on him broke through the ice, so focused that he couldn't ignore it.

Quantity has changed and quality has changed, Pei Ze is changing, and he is also changing.

Xie Congxin didn't dislike such gazes.

As he lay on the bed, his breathing gradually calmed down. Pei Ze wiped his face and hands, took off his shoes and socks, and covered him with a quilt.

This was something he had been doing for almost half a month, and it was done very smoothly, with very light movements, which would not disturb Xie Congxin.He stood up, turned off the light by the bed, and was about to go back to his room, but Xie Congxin suddenly called him from behind: "Pei Ze."

When Pei Ze turned his head, Xie Congxin opened his eyes and was looking at him.

"En." Pei Ze responded, he was trying to respond to every word of Xie Congxin, even if there was only one word, he tried not to remain silent.

Xie Congxin sat up from the bed.

Pei Ze walked back, sat on the edge of the bed, and asked him, "What's wrong?"

Xie Congxin looked at him for a while, then called him: "Captain Pei."

Pei Ze didn't like these three words.

Xie Congxin always called him like this to outsiders, calling him Deputy Captain Zhou, Director Feng, and Manager Kong... He was always called the captain, and only rarely would he be called "Pei Ze".

He wanted to hear it very much. There were not many people who would call him by his name, and there were even fewer people who could make him look forward to it.

"Call your name," Pei Ze said, "Pei Ze."

Xie Congxin was a little surprised, his lips parted slightly, and Pei Ze raised his hand to touch his side face very lightly.

He seemed to like such little actions, touching his face and kissing his forehead. Every night when Xie Congxin was sent upstairs by him, he would often feel the temperature of his lips or palms in a half-dream and half-awake state.

He himself didn't want to admit it, but every time Pei Ze did this, he could sleep very well that night.

He enjoyed Pei Ze's non-intense, somewhat depressing, very small tenderness.

Therefore, even though he has countless ways to reject Pei Ze without opening his mouth, he has not put it into action so far. It seems that he is pampering Pei Ze, but in fact it is better to say that Pei Ze is pampering him, pampering him like this Enjoy the selfish behavior of being ambiguous and unwilling to respond.

It's not that he can't give it, it's just that he's used to getting the upper hand when it comes to getting along with others, even if he is born to like the same sex, he never thought of giving in in front of his future partner.

But he also couldn't imagine Pei Ze submitting to him.

Xie Congxin sighed silently, and called him: "Pei Ze."

He yelled very seriously, and the two words came out of his thin lips, which had a more indescribable meaning than the one just now. Pei Ze's heart moved slightly, and he asked again: "Teacher told you everything?"

Pei Ze paused slightly, then nodded, "Yes."

Xie Congxin said: "The antiviral drugs for the virus have already begun to take shape. It will be next year soon, or two or three years later. Humans will definitely be able to overcome this disaster."

Pei Ze didn't know why he suddenly mentioned this.

"So the virus in your body will be cleared sooner or later," Xie Congxin said lightly, "Until then, I will continue to transfuse blood for you."

Pei Ze already understood what he meant——

"Your choice is not just me," Xie Congxin said, "You can choose anyone."

"..."

The room was quiet for a few seconds. Pei Ze looked at his amber pupils and asked, "Anyone?"

Xie Congxin nodded, affirming: "Anyone."

Pei Ze leaned forward suddenly, "Including you?"

"..." Xie Congxin paused, and was about to dodge, but his chin was held.

It was a split second before Pei Ze kissed her.

Xie Congxin's eyes widened, and the other hand subconsciously wanted to push, but he held it in the palm of his hand. Instead, Pei Ze knelt on one knee on the bed, in a condescending posture that did not give him oppressive weight, and kissed his lips. He touched it lightly, and let it go quickly.

Xie Congxin frowned, and wanted to speak, but Pei Ze didn't give him a chance. In less than half a second, he lowered his head again, kissed again, and stuck his tongue into his slightly parted lips. Xie Congxin wanted to break free from the hand he was holding. But he couldn't move because his fingers were interlocked. Pei Ze didn't have many skills, but he kissed very seriously and gently. After realizing that Xie Congxin was no longer struggling, he even let go of his chin and held his waist——

This is not the first time they have kissed. During the few days in Zhengzhou, in front of the camera, their kiss and hug were far more intense than this time, but the meaning contained in it was completely different.

That time was a fake show that they knew well, but this time, Xie Congxin felt his treasure from Pei Ze's tenderness.
