cut the waves

After taking a sip, Su Liao couldn't help turning his head, his whole face wrinkled.

"Don't hide," Yu Yu was amused by his expression, "Drinking this is very effective, trust me."

Su Liao grinned and took the bowl from his hand. Although there was a hundred reluctance written on his face, he still held his breath and poured down the big bowl of hot soup. The hot ginger water burned all the way from the esophagus, and his limbs finally warmed up.

"What do you want to eat tonight? Get you some porridge?"

Su Liao looked quite resistant, and he lifted the quilt and wanted to get out of bed: "Thank you, I feel much better. It's getting dark, you should go home first, didn't auntie come back yesterday?"

Yu Yu pushed him back on the bed, a little annoyed.

"Don't you know that you have gold here?" He reached out and flicked his forehead with his index finger, "Such an easy-to-use brain, what if it burns out?"

Su Liao struggled: "My swimming trunks and towels haven't been dried yet."

"I've aired it out for you."

"I—" Su Liao couldn't find another excuse to get up for a while, and got stuck.

"Lie down." Yu Yu got up, got a cool wet towel, folded it and put it on Su Liao's forehead, "Physically cool down first, drink some porridge later and then take medicine, I told my mother, tonight not going back."

Su Liao stared at him blankly, but opened his mouth but did not make a sound: "..."

He subconsciously clenched his palms hidden under the quilt: "...Don't feel guilty, you didn't force me into the water."

It is impossible to say that there is no guilt.

but--

Yu Yu's eyebrows softened again, he squeezed Su Liao's hand through the quilt: "It's not guilt."

Su Liao pouted: "It's nothing, you can go."

Yu Yu frowned in wonder, and muttered, "You want to drive me away so much? If you weren't sick, I wouldn't be bothered to treat you so well."

Su Liao: "..."

"This is called sick privilege," Yu Yu patted his face, "I advise you to cherish it."

Su Liao was speechless for a while: "... There are privileges when you are sick."

"Yeah, when I was a child, my mother made stewed pork rice for me only when I was sick." Yu Yu nodded seriously, "My mother's stewed pork rice is delicious, let her make you a copy some other day .”

Su Liao lay on the bed with limbs stiff, staring at Yu Yu: "..."

Yu Yu found that Su Liao was quick to take care of others, but when he was served, he didn't know where to put his hands and feet. The tangled and cramped appearance was both funny and distressing.After tidying up the house, he went to the Ning Da cafeteria to order some porridge, fearing that Su Liao would be sick and tasteless in his mouth, so he bought a small packet of dried radish.

Su Liao was dizzy all the time, drank porridge, took medicine, and fell asleep again in a daze.He woke up twice in the middle, and found that there was always warm water on the head of the bed, neither too hot nor too cold, and the wet towel on his forehead would be replaced when it was hot—the heart was gradually filled with small happiness, like It's like being rubbed by a kitten's paw.

In fact, being ill is a particularly sensitive matter for Su Liao.

He absolutely hates being sick.Probably because he was born in a child and was admitted to the ICU several times in a row. Every time he was sick, the family would be very nervous, as if he was some kind of porcelain that could break when touched, and what followed was endless Admonish and blame.

"Why don't you know how to add an extra dress when the weather is cold?"

"Is it because I went to the cinema with my classmates last weekend? I told you that the air in that place is not good and it is easy to spread diseases, so I told you not to go there in the future."

"Did you forget to drink the ginseng soup that your aunt made for you?"

Like, sick because he "did something wrong".

In order to prevent him from getting sick again, every time he gets sick, the family will always impose some behavioral restrictions on him, such as forcing him to drink all kinds of "healthy soup" that is extremely unpalatable, and restricting him from going out to play with his classmates. He goes to bed late, eats junk food, and does all the things a kid would do, and his aunt will say: "If your mother knows that you don't cherish your body so much, how distressed it will be?"

Yep, killer trump card.

That cage in the name of love made Su Liao feel exhausted.Physical discomfort is secondary. Sometimes he would rather lie alone and be cremated than suffer the "spiritual torture".Therefore, if you can hold on, you must hold on, and if you can do it without bothering others, don't bother others.

This is the first time Su Liao knew that being sick can be "privileged".That feeling made him feel very fresh, as if being sick wasn't so bad anymore.

Su Liao's fever subsided that night.

I don’t know when it started raining outside the window, falling on the roof, on the leaves, on the ground... The sound of "dripping" was like an invisible hand, gently touching his dreams, like wind passing by the sparkling lake , It seems that the waves have kissed the beach soaked by sea water.Su Liao hugged the quilt and turned sideways. He felt a little dizzy all night, as if he was in the bottom of the sea, rising and falling with the tide.In that dim dream, a mermaid dragged a black and gold tail, swimming towards him from the place where the sky broke——

A few muffled thunders could be heard from farther away from time to time, and Su Liao woke up suddenly.

The moon-shaped night light stands quietly on the bookshelf, emitting a gentle white light. An astronaut is sitting on it, and the bedside clock shows 02:48AM.Su Liao silently opened his eyes wide in the darkness, turned his head to look at the peaceful sleeping faces of the people around him, and suddenly became short of breath.He quietly turned over and got a little closer.

Su Liao traced Yu Yu's eyebrows and eyes, and the outline gradually overlapped with the mermaid in the dream.Between his breaths, he was familiar with the smell of bedding mixed with a smell he was not so familiar with - Su Liao couldn't tell what it was, but that smell reminded him of warm sunshine and mellow roasted nuts , and the fragrance that comes when you step into the pine needles.

He took another breath almost greedily, and Yu Yu's eyebrows twitched suddenly.Su Liao's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly held his breath.

Not knowing whether it was the muffled thunder or Su Liao's movement, Yu Yu also woke up.The moment he opened his eyes, Su Liao closed his eyes guiltily.He could feel a warm thing approaching him cautiously, Yu Yu seemed to be afraid of disturbing Su Liao, so he didn't dare to make too much movement, just touched his forehead lightly with his forehead.

Yu Yu made sure that Su Liao didn't burn again, so he pulled the quilt around his neck again, wrapped him tightly, and pushed it back slightly.

Su Liao closed his eyes and pretended to move his limbs in his sleep. He deliberately turned over again and hooked one hand on Yu Yu's body. He rubbed the pillow and rested his chin on Yu Yu's shoulder, pretending that he was sleeping soundly.

Anyway, as Yu Yu said, you can "do whatever you want" when you are sick.

Yu Yu: "..." Why didn't you remember that this person slept badly?

Forget it, the patient is the biggest.Yu Yu didn't move and simply let someone hug him like this, closed his eyes and fell asleep again.

When his breathing became even again, Su Liao opened his eyes, which were amazingly clear in the dark.Outside the window is still pattering, and the mixed thoughts are like spring grass after the rain, and in the blink of an eye, the mountains and plains are all over the place.

Su Liao's high fever came up quickly and subsided quickly, and he was revived with full blood early the next morning.After the resurrection, Su Liao obviously talked a lot more. He lay on the bed with his pillow in his arms, and winked at Yu Yu expectantly: "Little padded jacket, I want to eat soy milk, Qianji's salted tofu nao, tea eggs and Ergou Five-spice beef buns from Baozipu. Oh yes, the tofu nao should be served with shrimp skin mustard green onion instead of coriander."

After finishing speaking, he continued to lie on the bed, not intending to get up at all.

Yu Yu took his temperature again, looked down at 36.7, and sneered: "Your little padded jacket is leaking air, go downstairs and buy it yourself."

Su Liao: "..."

"Hey—the agreed patients have privileges!"

Yu Yu waved the thermometer: "It's due."

For the first time in his life, Su Liao actually wished that he would be sick for a longer time.

Before Yu Yu left that day, he still couldn't help turning his head back, and asked the words that he had held back for a long time in his heart: "Hey, will you agree to anyone who asks you to jump into the sea together in winter?"

Su Liao raised his eyebrows, and smiled unseriously: "Yes, as long as the other party begs me pitifully. Well, I'm soft-hearted, as long as the request is pitiful enough, I will definitely agree."

Yu Yu: "..."

He gave someone a middle finger before slamming the door.

Su Liao laughed out loud.

He packed up, passed by the bookshelf, stopped again, and took out a copy of "The Kite Runner" from the bookcase full of books.In this book, there is a sentence that he particularly likes.

"For you, a thousand times over."

For you, thousands of times.

With spring thunder and rain, the temperature in Ninggang City slowly rises.

Yu Yu found his rhythm again in training.Whether it is underwater training or weight training on land, Yu Yu has changed from blindly pursuing speed, number of practice sets and weight bearing to carefully feeling the strength and relaxation of muscles.He seemed to be able to hear the sound of his own nerve cells growing—he began to feel every muscle of his body more strongly, and mastered how to better control them, like a dialogue between the brain and the body.

Yu Yu no longer frequently asked Yan Zheng to help him measure his speed, until Yan Zheng took a photo of a professional athlete registration information form in front of him: "Fill this out first, and only after registration can you participate in the professional group of the National Swimming Marathon Championship."

"Can I participate this year?" Yu Yu was taken aback, "Didn't we even start the second stage of training?"

Yan Zheng took the registration form and knocked him on the head: "Smelly brat, from the moment you stopped pestering me to ask 'when will the second stage start', your second stage has officially started."

Yu Yu: "..." Why are you going around like this.

"I've told you many times that marathon swimming is the loneliest sport." Yan Zheng raised the corner of his mouth slightly, "It's just a bottleneck of a few months. If you don't even have that bit of patience, I think you will No more marathons."

Yu Yu glanced at the registration form carefully, and frowned again: "That's not right, coach, I can't participate in the national middle school students if I have registered with the State General Administration of majors."

"I know." Yan Zheng waved his hand, "I've shown it to you, we have a time difference. The national middle school finals are at the beginning of May, and the championship game is at the end of May. If you don't register, then you won't be eligible to participate in the championship game. This review It will take a while, we will prepare the materials first, and then I will ask someone to help you get a time card, and strive to participate in both."

Only then did Yu Yu feel relieved: "Thank you coach."

"The National Swimming Marathon Championship is divided into individual competitions and team competitions," Yan Zheng said again, "There is no limit to the recommendation of the provincial team for the individual competitions, and there are only three places for the team competitions. At that time, the competition within the team will determine the places."

"it is good."

"Do you want to participate?"

Yu Yu answered firmly: "I want to!"

Yan Zheng was very satisfied with his aura, and nodded with a smile, but soon, he narrowed his eyes maliciously: "For this competition, the participation fee is borne by the team, so your walking training My kid, we generally don’t recommend individual competitions. However, if you can swim into the top three and participate in the team competition, I will open a back door for you.”

Yu Yu: "..."
