The more Zhou Ding thought about it, the more he felt that he was at a loss!

So he hugged Xia Yu angrily, asked him why he didn't come to see him play earlier, and tried his best to criticize him.

One person's addiction turned into two people's madness.

The lights didn't go out until late at night.

At 12:30 noon the next day, the hotel front desk called for an inquiry.

Zhou Ding picked it up in a daze, continued the room on the phone for another day, and ordered a set meal for two, then hung up the phone, and continued to sleep with Xia Yu in his arms.

Xia Yu didn't move at all during this period.

It wasn't until the set meal was delivered that he was woken up by Zhou Ding, and he got up and ate something wholeheartedly.

Xia Yu was so tired that his eyelids kept falling down while eating.

He also ate unsteadily, because it was uncomfortable no matter how he sat. There were big soft cushions under his body and behind his waist, but they were of no use at all.So he frowned all the time while eating, and finally only drank half a bowl of vegetable porridge and two pieces of cod, then lay down on the bed again and continued to sleep.

Zhou Ding was also tired, but he recovered quickly.

They went to bed at almost four o'clock, and they have slept for almost nine hours now, plus a big lunch. After eating and drinking, Zhou Ding felt that he had almost recovered, not to mention full of energy, but not tired feeling.

On the contrary, it was Xia Yu, looking listless.

After eating, Zhou Ding didn't sleep anymore.

He packed the rest of the meal and put it at the door, then closed the door again, quietly walked to Xia Yu and squatted down.

There was no light in the room, and it was so dark that only the outlines of objects could be seen clearly.

Zhou Ding squatted beside the bed, first called Xia Yu's name twice in a low voice, and seeing that the other party didn't respond, he carefully pinched the quilt, and then slowly opened it.

An ambiguous smell came out, Zhou Ding moved his nose, his expression remained unchanged.

Then, he put his head up, and put his phone up again.

The flashlight mode was turned on, and the quilt was suddenly bright, and all the traces were clearly exposed under the light.

Zhou Ding choked for breath and swallowed.

However, in the next second, his brows were furrowed. After watching carefully for a while, he held his breath, stretched out his hand, and gently pinched Xia Yu's ankle, and slowly moved aside.

hiss……

The pupils shrank slightly, and Zhou Ding pursed his lips.

He turned off the flashlight mode, helped Xia Yu cover the quilt again, and then sat down beside the bed. After finding Xiaojige's WeChat account, a series of messages were sent - [Zhou Ding: Are you there? 】

[Zhou Ding: How did you take care of your zero ML? 】

[Zhou Ding: Do you need medicine? 】

[Zhou Ding: Or just recover naturally? 】

[Zhou Ding: There should be medicine, right?Otherwise, if it is too frequent, it will be too late to recover, right? 】

[Zhou Ding: Is there anything that can make that, just, recover quickly? 】

Zhou Ding held the phone, waiting for the other party to reply.

However, Xiao Ge, who used to reply in seconds, didn't reply in seconds this time. Even when he came back from the shower, the other party still didn't reply a word.

not here?

very busy?

Zhou Ding glanced at Xia Yu who was sleeping soundly on the bed, thought for a moment, and searched for it by himself.

When I saw something that I thought was useful, I went to a certain treasure search, added it to the shopping cart after searching, and added a basket of suppositories, medicine jade, tender red pigment, etc., and took screenshots of several WeChat IDs and store names. , are all sellers who specialize in private customization recommended in the post.

Zhou Ding didn't understand, but he also knew that these things should not be bought randomly.

Left and right are fine now, so he just searched for one thing after another, read the introduction, read popular science, read reviews, and placed an order when he felt that it was really useful.

Just when he researched Yaoyu, a hoarse voice sounded.

"Zhou Ding."

Zhou Ding hurriedly put down his phone: "I'm here."

He walked over and turned on the bedside lamp, "Are you awake?"

Xia Yu looked straight at him: "Well, I woke up."

For some reason, Zhou Ding felt that the way Xia Yu looked at him was not quite right.

His eyes were pitch-black, especially deep, and combined with his expressionless face, he felt an inexplicable chill down his back.

Zhou Ding touched the back of his head: "Oh, then, do you feel hungry? Do you want to eat something?"

"Not hungry."

Xia Yu said, "I want to take a bath."

"Okay, I'll carry you to the bathroom."

In the past, Xia Yu would ask Zhou Ding to stay and help wash, but this time, he only asked Zhou Ding to carry him into the bathroom, and asked Zhou Ding to go out.

Zhou Ding was a little dazed, but didn't say anything.

Because his intuition told him that it would be better to be obedient in front of Xia Yu today.

In the bathroom, there was the sound of water splashing and white mist rising.

Xia Yu lay reclined in the bathtub, her injured right leg resting on the edge of the bathtub.

The body was soaked in hot water, and it was so comfortable that people sighed. I only felt that most of the soreness and exhaustion in the body were soaked away.

but……

After taking a long breath, Xia Yu opened his eyes.

He frowned slightly, his eyelids drooped slightly, and his thin fingertips slowly touched the swollen skin with the sound of water.

"Well."

Xia Yu frowned and snorted.

It feels... not bad.

It should be... not... loose, right?

After taking a bath, Xia Yu put on her nightgown, propped herself against the wall and left the bathroom.

Zhou Ding has already pulled up the curtains and turned on the ventilation fan.

The air in the room was fresh and clean, and the dirty sheets and quilts were replaced with new ones by the cleaning lady.

"Why didn't you call me when you were well?" Seeing Xia Yu coming out, Zhou Ding immediately ran over to help him.

Xia Yu didn't say a word, and was helped to sit back on the bed.

He nestled in the cushion silently, watching Zhou Ding busily put the small dining table given by the cleaning aunt on the bed, and then took apart the insulated boxes one by one and put them on the table.

The delicate food exudes a tempting fragrance, but Xia Yu has no appetite.

After Zhou Ding arranged the things, he handed the spoon to Xia Yu, and pushed the lean meat porridge in front of him: "You eat too little at noon, eat more. It's five o'clock now, if you want to be happy after eating, We can go for a walk."

Xia Yu took the spoon and hummed softly.

Zhou Ding looked at him: "Is there something wrong with you?"

Xia Yu drank the porridge with downcast eyes: "No."

Zhou Ding felt even more suspicious.

He put down his chopsticks, reached out and touched Xia Yu's forehead, it wasn't hot, he didn't have a fever, so why did he look listless?

He thought for a while, then asked, "Does it hurt there?"

Xia Yu's expression was light: "It's okay."

However, the next second after he finished speaking, he suddenly raised his eyelids, looked straight into Zhou Ding's eyes, and his tone became much more serious in an instant, "Zhou Ding."

Zhou Ding sat up straight subconsciously: "I am here."

"You..." Xia Yu paused.

"Me what?" Zhou Ding looked back at Xia Yu seriously.

"you……"

Xia Yu breathed out, but still lowered her head, avoiding Zhou Ding's gaze, "Come out when it's over, don't stay inside all the time."

"Ah?" Zhou Ding was stunned for a moment before he realized, "Oh, good."

In the next moment, he asked again, "Why? Is it uncomfortable?" He liked this kind of intimacy very much, and Xia Yu didn't reject it. From the first time he indulged until now, he thought Xia Yu liked it too.

Xia Yu frowned, a little irritable: "There is no reason."

Seeing this, Zhou Ding didn't dare to ask any more questions, so he nodded and said, "Okay, I understand."

Xia Yun hummed, and continued to drink the porridge with her head down.

Zhou Ding originally had a good appetite, but now he can't eat.

Is this the ruthlessness of pulling chrysanthemums?

Mingming still smiled so happily at him last night, would take the initiative to kiss him, hug him, would stick to his ear and breathe on him on purpose, would hold his hand, and teach him how to use it little by little hold him.

As a result, when I woke up, everything changed.

There was no smile, no intimacy, and the expression and tone were cold and cheerless, as if the two of them were just irrelevant strangers.

Zhou Ding felt as if a basin of ice water had been poured on his heart.

He really wanted to know what happened when Xia Yu was sleeping, was it a nightmare?Then make him angry?Or did he do something while sleeping that affected Xia Yu?Or maybe Xia Yu was really uncomfortable, but she was just too embarrassed to say it?

He wanted to know very much, but he didn't dare to ask, so he could only hold back in his heart.

That night, neither of them went out and rested in the hotel.

Xia Yu was half lying on the bed, watching a movie on TV, while Zhou Ding was sitting by the bed, looking at Xia Yu from time to time.

With a "buzz", the phone vibrated.

Zhou Ding thought it was Xiaoji who replied, and quickly looked at the phone, but no, it was his mother who sent a message asking him when he would go back. They had already picked up his grandparents from the nursing home, and they were waiting for him to go back to celebrate the New Year together.

After reading the news, Zhou Ding pondered for a while, and then quietly glanced at Xia Yu.

He doesn't dare to speak much now, let alone mention the Chinese New Year with Xia Yu.

Talking about this matter will definitely make Xia Yu think of his parents and the bad things that happened before. Now Xia Yu is not very happy at first, so it would be even more troublesome for him to talk about this.

But this matter has to be said.

Because next Thursday is New Year's Eve, less than a week from now, he definitely can't go back on the New Year's Eve, no matter what, he has to advance two days.

Zhou Ding quietly sized Xia Yu up, observing his expression.

After turning his mind eighteen times, he took a breath and had a plan in his mind.

He suppressed his voice and shouted: "Xia Yu."

"Huh?" Xia Yu didn't look at him.

Zhou Ding said: "Shall we go shopping together tomorrow? I want to buy some clothes."

Xia Yu's tone was light: "Yes."

"Then go tomorrow morning?"

"Ah."

These three consecutive replies made Zhou Ding even more sure that Xia Yu was unhappy.

But why is he unhappy?

Zhou Ding was extremely puzzled, but still took a deep breath, and continued to maintain the gentle tone before: "When do you plan to go to bed tonight?"

This can't be an "um" again, can it?

Xia Yu said: "Sleep when you're sleepy."

Zhou Ding glanced at the time, it was 09:30.

He thought for a while: "How about we play Landlord Fighting?"

"I want to watch a movie."

"Okay." Zhou Ding closed his mouth and went to bed.

He sat next to Xia Yu, not daring to say a word.

but……

What is Xia Yu doing?

Because he was so close, he could feel the subtle movements coming from Xia Yu's body.

Xia Yu seemed to be consciously relaxing and tightening her body, and her breathing fluctuated regularly with the contraction of her body.

What is this doing?

Zhou Ding thought for a while, but still asked: "Xia Yu, what are you doing?"

"It's nothing."

He was blocked back indifferently.

Zhou Ding: "..."

He pursed his lips, not knowing what to think, and being blocked by the cold tone, his heart was astringent.

What happened?

He didn't do anything, did he?

Zhou Ding held his breath and went through all the things that happened today in his mind countless times, but no matter how he thought about it, he couldn't figure out what went wrong.

He really couldn't, took out his phone——

[Zhou Ding: Master He!Help! ! ! 】
