Wind Shakes the Barley

This time the acupuncture took a long time. Before pulling out the needle, Chang Qi turned on the music player in his mobile phone. While doing acupuncture, he followed Jiang Xu. When he saw a change in Jiang Xu's eyes, he immediately asked: "can you hear?"

Jiang Xu's eyes widened when he stared, looking at Chang Qi's dazzling eyes, he sat up from the bed "I heard it! I heard it!" After speaking, he picked up the phone and put it to his ear, and pressed After pressing the volume keys a few times, he put the phone to his ear and listened again, his smile suddenly dropped a bit: "It seems... the sound is a bit low."

"Normal." Chang Qi stretched out her hand to gently rub his ears, and sat next to him to ensure that he could hear what she said. "If there is no accident, you can return to normal hearing after one or two acupuncture sessions."

"Oh... um..." Jiang Xu was a little at a loss while holding the phone, he even temporarily forgot the excitement he was about to recover, and focused all his nerves on the ear rubbed by Doctor Chang.

He bent his legs and raised his hand to cover his face, even though he felt that his ears were about to be melted by the nameless fire, he was not willing to pull away from that hand.

Chang Qi glanced between his legs, his eyes were somewhat complicated.He put away his hands, turned around and walked towards the desk, with his back to Jiang Xu, and began to tidy up the desk slowly. He didn't hear the sound of his feet landing on the other side until the things were packed.

Chang Qi sighed lightly, secretly regretting that she was too careless before and didn't notice Jiang Xu's thoughts.Thinking back now, Jiang Xu was very clear from the beginning, even though he gradually covered up later, it was still full of loopholes.If he had paid more attention, he should have discovered it long ago.

Now that the matter has come to this, Chang Qi can't help but feel a little headache.

"Let's go back." Chang Qi changed his coat and went out. When Jiang Xu came out, he locked the door, and the two headed towards the dormitory together.

Just after taking a few steps, a few fingers suddenly slipped into the palm of his hand. Chang Qi paused, let go of his hand naturally, and raised his hand to tighten his collar for Jiang Xu: "Hurry up, it's cold outside."

After Chang Qi finished speaking, he took the lead to walk forward, while Jiang Xu froze in place, looking at the familiar figure in front of him, his heart sank inexplicably.

The cold wind blew through the palm of his hand, and the place was empty. The coolness penetrated into his lungs along the palm of his hand, making his heart tremble from the cold, and the figure in front of him was suddenly blurred.

Walking into the dormitory, Jiang Xu saw that the folding bed that had been put away before was taken out again. He should have been surprised, but it didn't seem to be.

Dr. Chang stood in front of the bed, holding the remote controller of the air conditioner in his hand, as if he wanted to adjust the temperature to a suitable temperature.

The figure in front of him was straight, standing sideways, his handsome facial features remained the same.

Jiang Xu lowered his head and took a breath, walked over with his feet up, with a smile on his face, and gently tugged on Dr. Chang's sleeve: "Why did you take out the folding bed again, do you want me to sleep alone at night? Still a little scared."

"Don't be afraid." Chang Qi amplified the volume, habitually going to touch Jiang Xu's head, suddenly turned a corner halfway, and patted Jiang Xu's shoulder, "I'm in the house, and we will drive the car at night." Light sleep."

Jiang Xu turned his head and glanced at his shoulder, his voice tightened: "I'm not hearing well now, and if there is no one around, I don't feel safe."

"Jiang Xu." Chang Qi turned to look at him, "I've been a little tired these days, and I haven't slept well at night. If you're afraid, I'll put the folding beds side by side on the side of the bed. Is that okay? ?”

Doctor Chang's tone was calm and his eyes were calm, but it was this kind of calm that made Jiang Xu's heart constrict.

"...No need." He whispered, climbed onto the bed and lay down facing the wall.

Chang Qi didn't say anything else, and fell asleep on the folding bed after washing.Normally, he would definitely have to read for a while, but now he is in no mood at all.

The night light was turned on at the end of the bed on Jiang Xu's side. He glanced at the bed. Jiang Xu was still in the same posture as when he was lying down. His body was curled up, with most of his shoulders exposed. His figure was motionless, and he couldn't even hear his breathing. .

He knew that Jiang Xu hadn't fallen asleep yet, and his estrangement today should be quite obvious. Even if Jiang Xu couldn't figure it out for a while, he would understand what he meant after a while.

Thinking that he would stay here for more than a year, Chang Qi suddenly regretted coming here. If Jiang Xu hadn't met him, he wouldn't have to go through this.

Why did it become like this?Chang Qi sighed helplessly.

Early the next morning, when Jiang Xu opened his eyes, there was no one in the room.

Jiang Xu looked at the same breakfast on the table as yesterday, but his mood was completely different from yesterday.

He knocked on the table and found that his hearing seemed to have recovered. Jiang Xu smiled wryly, wondering if he wanted to boast about his good luck.

After breakfast, he walked to the doctor's consulting room with the exercises as usual. He had never been so nervous before, and his legs were a little out of control when he walked.

He felt Dr. Chang's indifference yesterday, but maybe he felt wrong?

Dr. Chang cared so much about his ears, and even ran all the way to the county to find him, it must be different to him. They were fine the day before yesterday, and he did nothing wrong. How could Dr. Chang suddenly dislike him? ?

He just told a little lie, he just deliberately pretended to be pitiful and tricked Dr. Chang into sleeping with him. This is not wrong, and Dr. Chang didn't care about it before, did he?

Pushing open the door of the consulting room, Jiang Xu went straight in with a few exercise books in his arms.

"Wait." Chang Qi knocked on the table, "Come here, let me see your ears first."

Jiang Xu paused, put down his book, and sat across from Dr. Chang.

"How do you feel today?" Chang Qi asked while feeling his pulse.

Jiang Xu lowered his head: "It's okay."

Chang Qi withdrew her hand: "Has your hearing recovered?"

Jiang Xu was silent for a long time before he said, "Maybe, I'm not sure."

"I'll give you acupuncture again, don't go to too noisy environment recently, tell me in time if you feel any discomfort in your ears, or if you feel repeated hearing." Chang Qi took out the things for acupuncture and motioned him to sit on the hospital bed .

Jiang Xu found that what he said didn't seem to matter anymore, and the fact that his hearing had recovered had become a fact.

The acupuncture process was very quiet this time, and Chang Qi put away the needles: "Now that you're done, go home and study, your mother is also very worried about you."

Jiang Xu's eyes darkened, he clenched his fists, feeling inexplicably uneasy: "Then what if I don't understand a question?"

Chang Qi: "Take a photo and send it to me."

Jiang Xu raised his head and looked at Dr. Chang's plain face, as if he was treating an ordinary patient. No matter how stupid he was, he could see that Dr. Chang treated him differently. He is not special at all, and there will be no special cases. .

Jiang Xu suddenly panicked, grabbed Doctor Chang's arm, and summoned up his courage, "It was agreed that you were going to watch me study, but I went home suddenly, in case my mother asks me, what should I say?"

Chang Qi bent down and pressed the computer's power button, and then pulled the chair forward: "It's enough to stare at you for two days. The most important thing about study is to rely on yourself."

Jiang Xu pursed his lips, looked at Doctor Chang's resolute profile, and stood there without moving.

It was less than eight o'clock, and no patients came. The door of the consulting room was closed, and there were only a few intermittent keyboard sounds in the room. The light from the monitor shone on Dr. Chang's face, making his face paler and his expression more indifferent.

Even though the two were in the same room now, Jiang Xu suddenly felt as if he was far away from Dr. Chang, as if in two intersecting spaces, even if he stretched out his hand, he couldn't touch anyone.

Jiang Xu walked home with his head down. He said that to that extent, he could no longer stay there with a stern face.At the same time, he was also afraid that if he was not "sensible", Dr. Chang would directly confront him.

Yes, he saw it, exposed himself.Because apart from this reason, there is nothing that can make Dr. Chang's attitude towards him change so much.

He couldn't help recalling all his actions in the past two days over and over again.

The warning he gave to himself before coming here seemed to have been forgotten when he was overwhelmed. He was obviously suspected, but he didn't know how to restrain himself at all. He deserved this result.

Jiang Xu returned home, greeted his mother, ignored the doubts on his mother's face, and went straight to his room.

"Are you coming back to live?"

Jiang Xu nodded.

Jiang Ma also breathed a sigh of relief: "It's more convenient to live at home, and we can't bother Dr. Chang too much."

Jiang Xu's eyelashes moved, and he had to admit that he was indeed a problem.

Jiang Ma: "Are you going back to the county? Anyway, it's almost winter vacation, or you can concentrate on studying at home, and your dad's legs will heal. I discussed with your dad to let you go back to school after the next year, just like you used to The class will continue."

Jiang Xu was taken aback: "Come back after the next year?"

"Yeah, didn't you just take a leave of absence in the second semester of the second year of high school, wouldn't it be good to go back after the next year?"

Hearing what his mother said, Jiang Xu felt a sense of urgency in his heart. If he goes back to school, it will be exactly one and a half years after he graduates, and he won't have much time to come back during the period.

Dr. Chang already knew what he was thinking. Judging from Dr. Chang's attitude today, if this continues, he may not even be able to see anyone after he graduates.

"Let me think about it again." Jiang Xu said and went back to the room.
