[Comprehensive] Did Zhixi watch pretty boys today?

On the way back that day, Zhi Xi developed a high fever.

Maybe it was because of the hard work of the past few days, or maybe it was because she had caught a cold in the air-conditioned room for the past few days... The illness was fierce, and when she came back to her senses, her forehead was already burning hot, and her bones and joints were also extremely sore.

She fell on the bed, unconscious, feeling like she was going to die.

The memory seemed to be fragmented, Zhi Xi was in a daze, trying to recall everything that happened today, but it was just a blank anyway, she couldn't remember what she saw and experienced, but only vaguely remembered that someone had left.

Oh, it's Davi, she thought.

Consciousness suddenly became clear again.

Is this my revenge, she thought.

Should I regret it?

Should I regret it.

Thinking about it this way, this weak and soft emotion is like a seed that has fallen into a swamp, it is a bit difficult to pick it out, and it is not easy to step on it, Zhixi gritted her teeth in a daze, and became firm again: "I don't regret it. ]

[Because everything I do comes from my heart. ]

Zhixi felt her body was cold and hot again, like an invisible flame in her body, burning bones, blood and organs from the inside out.She was in so much pain that she couldn't even keep breathing. The nasal cavity seemed to be blown by the scorching wind in the desert. It was dry and scorching. She had to open her mouth and breathe in small mouthfuls. Soon, smoke would come out of her throat; Invisible plant vines entwined around her body inch by inch, the rough skin rubbed against her skin, and then the pain broke out inch by inch.

After an unknown amount of time, a hand covered her forehead.

"How long? Is there no other shortcut?"

he asked the driver.

"Sunday is the peak time for going out, and it's time for dinner again," the driver sweated a little, and glanced at the people behind him through the front mirror, "There are too many cars on the road."

Hong Jiaodong frowned, and looked down at the person in his arms.

The woman was sweating all the time, her body curled up into a ball, her brows were tightly frowned, and she looked extremely uncomfortable.

It was 05:30 when he got home today. At first, he was a little surprised why she came back so early. When he saw that her door was closed, he didn't ask. He didn't ask until he came out of the bathroom after taking a shower, and was about to ask if she had dinner. , only to hear a small voice coming from inside.

Like the whimper of a wounded animal.

Zhixi's lips were slightly cracked due to dryness, she was pale, but her face had an unhealthy blush.She seemed to be half unconscious, her eyes were closed tightly, her fingers unconsciously grasped his neckline, and her whole body was shaking.

She seemed to be very cold, but her whole body was scorching hot. The summer clothes were thin, and the heat was directly transmitted to his body through the fabric, making his heart throbbing with pain.

It was the first time that Hong Jiaodong was so at a loss. He thought of the physical cooling method he had seen in other places, hesitated for a moment, and raised his hand to activate his personality.

A thin layer of ice covered half of his body, and the person in his arms quickly sensed it, twisted and wanted to leave, but Hong had no choice but to carefully and forcefully shackled her between his arms, repeatedly He comforted her softly in her ear: "Good boy, bear with me, I'll be at the hospital soon..."

After another half a minute, she finally calmed down, as if she had fallen asleep—but this peace only lasted less than a minute.

The chapped lips moved slightly, and a dreamlike cry escaped from the throat, vaguely, "Woo..."

"What's the matter, is there any discomfort?"

Hong was suddenly very nervous, and held her palm with one hand, "Zhi Xi?"

Zhi Xi didn't wake up, her eyes were still closed, she just started talking in her sleep in fragments, she couldn't make a sentence, so she had to lower her head and get closer to her, listening carefully to what she was saying.

"...I, I have a heart..."

"Woo...it hurts, I hurt so much..."

Hong Jiaodong didn't know how much perseverance he used to restrain himself from squeezing her painful hand at that moment.

What exactly happened, his face was gloomy, the air pressure around his body was terribly low in an instant, the phone was connected after a few seconds, and a young man's voice came from over there, "What's the matter, Mr. Hong?"

"She went out with you today."

is a declarative sentence.

Lu Gu paused, "Yes, yes——wait a minute, did something happen to Zhixi?"

"You didn't send her back?"

Hong was keenly aware of this.

The person on the other side of the phone was silent for a moment, "Didn't Zhixi tell you?...She got a call from the police and left first."

"Where did you go?"

"Hospital,"

The young man's voice was dry,

"She said she was going to see Dabi... for the last time."

When Zhixi woke up, she saw a white ceiling.

There was a faint smell of disinfectant from her nose, and she knew that she was now on a hospital bed without even thinking about it.After trying to move, every bone and joint in his body felt sore soon, but it was not as strong as before.

She thought about it carefully, and felt that she had been sick and troubled in the past six months.

The nurse who changed the bottle came in, and her eyes fell on her face, "Are you awake, is there anything uncomfortable? By the way, when Mr. Hong left, he told me that you haven't eaten yet, are you hungry now?" ?”

Zhi Xi couldn't get back to her senses all of a sudden, she was stunned for a while and said: "It's okay... nothing else is uncomfortable, and I'm not very hungry."

"Then let's have something to eat, ah yes, I'll call Mr. Hong."

She was about to go out after she finished speaking, Zhi Xi hurriedly called her: "Wait, may I ask what date is it today?... What time?"

The nurse burst out laughing, "You don't need to worry so much, you just slept through the night, today is Monday morning at 08:30."

"Then don't bother him," Zhi Xi felt relieved, and glanced at the remaining amount in the bottle, "Everyone has to go to work today, so I can leave after finishing this bottle, right?"

"..."

The nurse was overwhelmed by her speech as an elite social animal in the workplace. She stood at the door and choked for a long time before recovering her voice: "No, Miss Erzhixi has a serious fever this time, and she needs to stay in the hospital for observation for two more days. Anti-infection, I'll still call..."

Before she finished speaking, there was a noise at the door, and a man with a handsome face walked in, holding a food box in his hand.

"Thank you." He nodded slightly to the nurse.

"It's what I should do." The nurse pursed her lips and smiled, "Then I'll go first, and if you need anything, just ring the bedside bell."

"OK, thanks."

The nurse carefully closed the door before going out, turned around, and looked at Zhixi on the hospital bed, "Is it better?"

"It's much better." Zhixi said seriously, "I can go to work after finishing this bottle."

"no need."

"--why?"

She was fired? ?

Hong Jiaodong walked to the bed, sat down on the chair, and placed the bowl of porridge on the newly opened bed table.He scooped up a spoonful, blew on it, and handed it to Zhixi's lips: "I've approved your leave."

After a pause, he continued, "One week."

Zhi Xi was shocked, and followed his movements to hold the spoon in his mouth, and his face was wrinkled from the heat: "Ah, oh, oh, oh!"

Hong suddenly panicked, and stretched his hand straight to her mouth; "Don't swallow, spit it out!"

A thud.

——One step too late.

"..."

The man's face turned pale, and he quickly poured a glass of water from the table, it was warm, but he used his personality, and it was frozen to close to zero in a blink of an eye, Zhi Xi took it and took a big gulp.

After ten seconds of slowing down, he finally recovered.

Drinking a glass of ice water made Zhi Xi feel refreshed, and the muddleheadedness when she just woke up disappeared.

She wiped the water from her lips with the back of her hand, and noticed that the face of the person in front of her hadn't recovered, so she smiled: "Jiao Dong, your food box is really good at keeping warm."

It was rare for Hong Jiaodong not to reply to her words. He was blaming himself and thinking about whether he needed to be transferred to the gastroenterology department for a laryngoscopy. He had heard when he was a child that some people suffered from esophageal cancer because of eating hot food.

As soon as Zhi Xi saw his expression, she knew what he was thinking, and hurriedly diverted her attention: "Jiao Dong, I'm hungry, I want porridge."

She had thought that, after going through such a thing just now, Hong would pass the spoon into her hand and let her do it herself, but unexpectedly the man raised his eyelids, took another small sip by the handle of the spoon, and blew , and then handed it to his lips.

Zhi Xi: "...?"

"It's not hot anymore, Zhi Xi," he handed over the spoon again, "but you should eat slowly."

His movements were too natural, and so was his expression, as if there was nothing wrong with what he did, it was just an ordinary thing.

Zhi Xi was stunned.

"—Wait a minute, Jiao Dong." She felt that she had to make a clear distinction with Hong on this matter, and immediately sat up straighter, "I'm not a child anymore, I can do it by myself."

"...and men and women are different."

Zhi Xi admitted that her focus was on the latter sentence.

She and Hong Jiaodong are different from others.

Because in the past two years, they were closer than ordinary people—even lovers, so after Zhixi made that decision, he was the one who made her most embarrassed.

How to grasp the measure?How far, how close, is it just right?Without hurting feelings, without crossing that line.

Zhi Xi thought to herself for a few days, and felt that this matter should not be thought too clearly, just follow the instructions of her heart.

……

He narrowed his eyes in thought.

Zhi Xi looked at him nervously.

After a while, the man said slowly: "Indeed, you are right."

Zhi Xi: "..."

I don't know why she is more nervous.

"But, if you really want to talk about it,"

Hong looked over calmly, did not take back the spoon in his hand, and just approached her lips from a very short distance, "Zhixi, we drink from the same cup, eat from the same set of bowls and chopsticks, and sleep on the same bed ...Don't you think it's too late to mention this now?"

Ask very seriously.

"..."

Zhi Xi didn't know what expression to use to answer this question.

If possible, she would rather jump from here.

——Why in the end!Give her back that little boy who was too shy to speak at all! !

……

He didn't wait for an answer, and Hong Jiaodong didn't insist on feeding her. He withdrew his hand and put the spoon into the bowl, and pushed the bowl in front of her again.

This is a compromise.

Zhi Xi coughed lightly, and changed the subject abruptly: "...Why did you ask me for a week off?"

"Because you need to."

"……what?"

Hong raised his eyes and looked over, his eyes light.

The woman was still recovering from a serious illness, and her complexion was still not very good, showing a faint sallow.On the thin cheeks, the outline of the bones seems to be a little sharper than before.Her lips were still pale, and her whole body exuded a faint sickness.

He knew that in order not to worry him, she had been trying her best to pretend that nothing had happened since then.

I don't know when and where this habit came from.

Kozai asked Yagi Genichiro last night, and learned that during the last period of Dabi, Erin Yuyu did watch him leave.

But before that, what happened between the two of them, and what the man said in the end, are all unknown.

He didn't know how Zhi Xi was feeling now, but the strangeness of this illness must have something to do with it.

But she didn't mention it, so he didn't ask.

This is their tacit understanding all the time.

Hong came back to his senses, "I also took a week off."

"...Isn't that the office is closed?"

"Ah."

Concise and concise, without saying a word.

Zhi Xi held back for a long time, but finally couldn't hold back: "Jiao Dong, do you have something to hide from me?"

As soon as the words came out of her mouth, she regretted a little: she had obviously hidden a lot more things.

But Hong didn't care, he just urged her to finish the bowl of porridge quickly with his eyes, and then answered leisurely: "I've been too tired recently, I want to go to Kyoto for vacation."

Shocked.

Shocked by his sudden decision, Zhi Xi subconsciously touched her head, but fortunately, she didn't miss it this time.

She quickly realized: With Hong Jiaodong's potential workaholic attributes, she would never say such a thing.

Therefore,

"Jiao Dong, are you taking me to Kyoto?"

"Ah."

"...you know."

"Ah."

He took away the empty bowl and tidied up the bedside table without looking back at her.

"You didn't do anything wrong, it's just that there are some things, some people, the fate is only so long."

"Zhixi, I know you won't be able to come out in a short time, I won't force you, but for the sake of your health, don't put too much pressure on yourself, okay?"

Quiet in the ward.

After a while, the man gently pressed the tissue to the corner of her eyes, and kept silent about anything related to it, he just said: "Zhi Xi, after crying this time, don't cry anymore."

"I can't do that much yet."

I can't be so magnanimous, watching her shed tears for other people.
