Chapter 4

Sheng Ci asked for a day off and slept at Zhang Yang's house all day, and Zhang's mother asked for leave to take care of him at home.

She called Sheng Ci's father during the period and told Sheng Ci's father that "Sheng Ci has a fever".Ben didn't hold any hostility, but when Sheng Ci's father said, "Don't you just have a fever, you can't die", he scolded Sheng Ci's faceless and skinless father.

Sheng Ci was awakened by Zhang's mother's furious scolding, but he just closed his eyes and pretended to sleep, listening to everything in his heart.

Mother Zhang said, "Neither of you husband and wife is like a person", "Isn't Sheng Ci your son?", "What is the difference between him and an orphan"?

Wanting to cry again, Sheng Ci thought, how can a sick person be so fragile?

After five o'clock in the afternoon, Zhang Yang returned home after the last class, and Zhang's mother was cooking porridge.Zhang Yang shouted "Mom, I'm back", then hurried to the bedroom, took off his schoolbag, and gave Sheng Ci a real hug.

Then he got straight to the point and said what he had been holding back all the time: "Your man... ex-boyfriend went to school today."

Sheng Ci's morbid face remained intact, his eyelids were half closed, and his eyes looked darker and colder because of his illness.

"What are you going to do?" Sheng Ci squeezed his palms and asked.

"It is said that it is because he wants to donate to the school. After all, this is also his alma mater. I think he stayed at the school all day," Zhang Yang asked ignorantly, "Does it take so long to discuss donations?"

The only light in Sheng Ci's eyes fell, and he leaned against the soft pillow at the head of the bed, closed his eyes, shook his head and said, "I don't know."

"No wonder Mr. Huo is so happy today. His favorite student is back." Zhang Yang patted Sheng Ci on the shoulder and said, "By the way, Mr. Huo asked me how your health is today, and asked me to tell you that the future is a big deal. Think about it carefully."

Sheng Ci lay limp on the bed, and said a weak "hmm".

After drinking the porridge at night, Sheng Ci felt much better.Zhang's mother asked Zhang's father to take another day off for Sheng Ci, saying that the illness had not fully recovered and he had to take care of him for another day.

Sheng Ci repeatedly said no, saying that it would not affect the class.What's more, the exam was about to come, and he didn't dare to delay it for too long, so he insisted on not asking for a day off.

Zhang's father and Zhang's mother kicked Zhang Yang's ass before going to bed, and told him to take good care of Sheng Ci.

Zhang Yang touched his butt aggrievedly, ran to Sheng Ci for comfort, but was dismissed by Sheng Ci with a lollipop.

Seeing the lollipop, he thought again, in fact, he is also a person who can get rid of it with a lollipop, but Mingxu seems unwilling to do so.

At ten o'clock the next morning, Zhang Yang, who had a class in the morning, was already sitting in the classroom and taking a nap.In Sheng Ci's afternoon class, he got up and took a shower in a leisurely manner. He was a little weak after recovering from a minor illness, and there was still a lingering sickness on his face.

The phone rang suddenly at this moment.

Sheng Ci hurriedly scooped up a few handfuls of warm water to wash off the toothpaste froth on the corners of his mouth, then patted his face again, trying to clear his chaotic head.

The caller is Zhang Yang.

He wiped his hands slowly before answering the phone.

"what's up?"

"Brother!" Zhang Yang was very noisy, Sheng Ci guessed that he had just finished class, "Your class is early in the afternoon, right? Go out and have fun together?"

"No," Sheng Ci knew what kind of medicine was sold in Zhang Yang's gourd, so he refused without thinking, "I'm going to find Mr. Huo after class in the afternoon."

Zhang Yang said secretly, "I think you'll regret it if you don't come."

"Are you sure you won't come?" Zhang Yang asked.

Sheng Ci took off his pajamas, changed into casual clothes with one hand, and said: "I will regret it if I go, don't go."

"I'm so happy to take off here!" Zhang Yang secretly worried about his brother's happiness and said, "It's definitely better than before!"

Sheng Ci immediately refuted him "no", but afterwards felt that he was unnecessary, so he changed the subject: "Is it too long since Auntie beat you up?"

This sentence really worked, Zhang Yang hung up before he finished listening.

After the call ended, Sheng Ci glanced at the phone and found that there were many unread messages.Yesterday, Zhang's mother asked him to rest and muted his phone.He also went to bed early and didn't pay attention to the various messages on his phone.

Most of the messages on WeChat were from classmates and roommates asking him how he was doing and telling him to take a good rest.

There was only one unread text message, and Sheng Ci didn't need to use his brain to know who it would be.

The text message showed the time at 53:[-] a.m. yesterday, and Mingxu asked him, "Is the fever gone?"

Sheng Ci remembered that Mingxu usually didn't get up until after six o'clock.Mingxu would get up to exercise, eat breakfast, and when Sheng Ci was nestled with him, he could rarely sleep in.

He put his fingers on the keyboard of the phone empty, and did not make a move for a long time.Until the housekeeping aunt of the Zhang family asked him "what do you want to eat", he said "light food is fine", then he only typed a few words on the keyboard and clicked send.

Retired, thank you.

After class in the afternoon, Sheng Ci stood on the corridor of Huo Lao's office next to the corridor, waiting for Huo Lao who was about to finish class.The north wind was whistling, and the bare twigs of the small potted plants in front of the office were blown slightly tilted.

Sheng Ci pulled the scarf a little higher, and put his cold hands in the pockets of his brown coat.He jumped with his left foot and right foot, and the breath he exhaled turned into white mist in the cold air and dispersed with the wind.

I don't know how long it took to jump, before his body felt a little warmer.

Suddenly someone patted his shoulder from behind.

Sheng Ci thought it was Mr. Huo.However, as soon as he turned around, the mouth in the shape of "Huo" hadn't retracted, and the smile froze on his face.

The person who came was Pei Yu, as Zhang Yang said, "a person of the same family who likes grand words".

Pei Yu's hair was messed up, as if he came in a hurry, with two cups of milk tea in his hand.

He smiled with narrow eyes, and politely greeted Sheng Ci: "Hello."

Sheng Ci also nodded and said, "Hello."

Pei Yu didn't say the reason, but accompanied Sheng Ci to blow the cold wind on the veranda.After a while, Sheng Ci murmured in his heart why Mr. Sheng hadn't come yet, it was already time for get out of class to end.Pei Yu held the milk tea in his hand in front of Sheng Ci, and asked, "Is it cold? The milk tea is hot, do you want to drink it?"

"No, thank you." Sheng Ci replied lightly.

Pei Yu didn't feel disappointed, and still held his hands up.He said: "Warming your hands is also good, it's not a loss."

Sheng Ci still wanted to refuse, saying "I don't like sweets", but Pei Yu stuffed one of the cups of milk tea into Sheng Ci's arms without any explanation, and said with a smile: "Don't lie to me, I saw it last time You ate cream puffs."

Sheng Ci had no choice but to take the milk tea, thanked him, and rubbed his nose in embarrassment.

After receiving the kindness of others, it is not easy to leave people aside.Sheng Ci asked Pei Yu dryly: "Are you also looking for Mr. Huo?"

Pei Yu smiled and said, "I thought you would directly ask if Zhang Yang told me, but I didn't expect you to give me face like this."

Sheng Ci felt that the question of "did Zhang Yang tell it?" was not worth thinking about at all.

"But think about it, you probably didn't give me face." Pei Yu shook the milk tea in his hand and said, "You gave the milk tea face."

He scratched his hair, took a sip of milk tea, and asked with a direct and serious smile, "Can I chase you now?"

Sheng Ci froze in place for a moment, so embarrassed that he didn't know what to do.After standing there for a while, he shook his head and replied, "No."

Pei Yu was probably prepared mentally for being rejected, relaxed as expected, and spoke out without accepting grandiose words.He shook the milk tea in his hand, and asked after a while, "Do you still like him?"

The inner voice of Sheng Ci is affirmative.

Like it, how could you not like it?

However, he was the one who broke up first, and he was the one who left first.Now that he said that he likes it, and that he likes it so much that he can't forget it, the end of this relationship is a bit too embarrassing.

What's more, Mingxu may not understand his liking at all.Ming Xu has always been like this, it is hard to tell whether he cares or not, and it is difficult to judge the depth of his feelings for a couple of love words that he occasionally says.

He is always calm, and his love for Sheng Ci is rational and limited.Sometimes Sheng Ci feels boring and bored, so he will repeatedly chew on some love words that Ming Xu said.

But these became hurtful things at some point.

Pei Yu squinted his eyes, as if he got the answer from Sheng Ci's expression.He put the milk tea on the low railing platform in front of him, looked at the tree downstairs that was blown to one side by the wind, and asked, "How much do you like him?"

"I don't like it anymore." I don't know if Sheng Ci's voice was slightly trembling due to the strong wind. He lowered his head and blinked his eyes, and said, "I won't like it after a while."

It is unnecessary to think about it, it is better to let go than to miss it.
