Seeing Bai Ling who was uncomfortable on the bed, Li He felt sad for no reason. The feeling of liking Bai Ling and feeling sorry for Bai Ling mixed together, pressing heavily on Li He's chest, making it difficult for him to breathe.
"Xiaobai, I'm sorry."
Li He's voice was very soft, but Bai Ling still heard it.
It's just that Bai Ling's stomach is writhing and uncomfortable, and his head is dizzy and painful, so he really doesn't have the strength to answer him.
But in fact, as far as Bai Ling was concerned, he had no intention of blaming Li He at all. On the contrary, he who always troubled Li He felt that he owed Li He the most. If Li He hadn't been silently helping and taking care of him, how could Bai Ling, who had never lived in the human world, blend into this peaceful and ordinary life so naturally.
Bai Ling struggled to open his eyes, looked at Li He with a tired face, and kept cleaning the floor for him, his feet were still covered with mud dried on his trouser legs.
It's not hard to imagine how much trouble Li He would suffer if he wanted to go back and forth from his home to the town with his lame leg.
What's more, the road after the rainy day is not easy to walk. Not to mention the lame Li He, even a normal person would have to be very careful if he wanted to walk this muddy road after the rain. And it must have taken a lot of effort for Li He to come and go like this.
For him, it is simply a very hard work.
"Brother Li He..."
Bai Ling looked at Li He's figure who was busy all the time for him, and he couldn't help feeling a bit of sadness in his heart. But Bai Ling couldn't do anything about it. He could only be angry and thankful in a weak voice: "Thank you, Brother Li He! I have worked hard for you these few days!"
The voice was very small, with a hint of hoarseness caused by fever. And it was such a somewhat hoarse voice, like a weightless feather, which lightly passed over the tip of Li He's heart. There were ripples in Li He's heart.
At that moment, Li He only felt that his heart was hot, as if there were all kinds of difficulties, and he couldn't match the words said by the person in front of him. No matter how much he paid, Li He was willing to work day and night as a cow and a horse for him, without complaint or regret.
And this is also the first time for Li He, who has been single for twenty years, to truly feel how wonderful and beautiful it is to be depended on and needed by a single person.
Li He only felt that all the tiredness and fatigue before had been swept away, and his whole body was full of energy as if he had been injected with chicken blood.
Li He smiled happily at Bai Ling: "Xiaobai, don't worry, this little thing is nothing to me! Besides, taking good care of you is what I should do, you don't have to go too far Blame yourself."
Li He's voice is very gentle, and there is always a taste of sunshine in his words, constantly giving people a kind of vigorous vitality. It seemed that in his eyes, all difficulties were just a cool breeze blowing by, leaving no trace.
Seeing Li He's patience, enthusiasm, and warmth, Xiao Jiujiu, who had always felt sorry for him in Bai Ling's heart, was finally dismissed by him.
Because he himself has finally figured it out, anyway, the current situation will cause trouble for Li He no matter what. And since this is the case, it is better to accept others' kindness to you as soon as possible. In this way, the two parties will not fall into an embarrassing situation where you owe me and I owe you.
As long as Bai Ling is clear in his heart, he will always remember Li He's kindness to him. In the future, it will be enough to redouble his efforts to repay him and repay his kindness to himself.
But even so, Bai Ling couldn't help it, and said with gratitude in his eyes: "Thank you, Brother Li He!"
Hearing the sound, Li He turned around and smiled at Bai Ling. The two rows of white and neat teeth made the gorgeous people a little dizzy. There was a warm smile on his wheat-colored face.
"Hey, you go to sleep first, I'll be right back."
As he spoke, he left Bai Ling with a tall and thin back, turned around and went out.
And Bai Ling, who was extremely uncomfortable at first, miraculously improved a lot at this moment. In the final analysis, I may still be in a good mood, which is why I have this illusion.
Even though Bai Ling still had a high fever and his body was extremely hot, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised. I don't know what a good thing it is that can make him laugh in such an uncomfortable situation.
Lying on the bed, Bai Ling felt the sound of rustling coming from the kitchen, and he calmed down unconsciously.
Because he knew that he was not alone in the family at this moment. But there is another person who is constantly busy for him.
The feeling of being cared for and taken care of in every possible way is like a peach tree that has endured the snow and frost for a long time, finally ushering in the spring breeze and warm sunshine in March. You can bloom flowers unscrupulously, and bloom your most beautiful and wonderful moment.
Bai Ling lay on the bed, that warm feeling kept flowing in his heart. Warm, conveyed to the limbs.
Once upon a time, there was someone who gave him such a warm feeling. At that time, he could even sacrifice his life for that person. But now it seems that... it's just a fleeting moment.
Bai Ling shook his head, unwilling to think about these troublesome things when he was sick.
Now, he just wants to be himself, to be an ordinary human being, to repay Li He for taking him in, saving him, caring for him, and taking care of him. As for the rest, everything has passed, and there is no need to look back on those pasts.
With this thought in mind, Bai Ling fell into a drowsy sleep again.
This sleep was not deep, but light. He was so shallow that he could clearly feel every move around him. Even when it started to rain outside the window, he could hear it very clearly.
The sound of pattering rain, mixed with the sound of water droplets falling into the soil, soaking the earth. The sound of the rain is not very loud, but it is crisp and subtle.
With a refreshing coolness, the rain seeped through the gaps in the windows and sneaked into the house quietly.
But Bai Ling, who was lying on the bed, felt a very strange feeling at this moment.
Obviously, my body is scorching hot, and I still have a fever. But when the coolness outside the window really fell on him, he felt extremely cold, wishing he could tuck himself into the quilt.
However, before staying under the quilt for a long time, the boring and suffocating heat swept over again. Bai Ling had to shake the quilt again a few times, and stretched his arms or legs out of the quilt to dissipate the heat a little.
And when the heat dissipated and the coolness swept over, Bai Ling felt a biting cold hit again, forcing him to crawl back into bed again.
In this way, I don't know how many times I went back and forth, until Li He came over with a bowl of black Chinese medicine, Bai Ling stopped this "struggle against nature".
The steaming hot Chinese medicine, with a strong bitter taste, filled the whole room without a trace of extra space.
At that moment, Bai Ling seemed to have returned to the first time when he first met Li He. That sunny, resolute, warm and hopeful young man. Smiling, like the February spring breeze melting ice and snow, brings people an indescribable comfort.
Li He's eyes are deep and dark, like a black hole that attracts people to fall. But the two rows of white teeth when she smiled were as dazzling as stars in the night sky.
Looking carefully, Bai Ling's heart beats faster and his breathing feels unnatural. And the flushed face that was originally flushed due to the fever was even more rosy.
Li He gently blew on the decoction, mixed it with a spoon, and wanted to feed Bai Ling himself.
But Bai Ling didn't follow Li He's wishes, but took the medicine bowl awkwardly, and said unnaturally: "It's better... I'll do it myself..."
Seeing what Bai Ling said, Li He didn't force it. Instead, he gently lifted Bai Ling up, and then handed the soup into Bai Ling's hands.
The bitter decoction is still extremely difficult to enter the throat. I don't know if it's Bai Ling's illusion, but he always feels that the soup this time is much more bitter than the previous one.
After just taking a sip, Bai Ling was so uncomfortable that he was about to cry. The entire taste buds were surrounded by a bitter feeling, and almost instantly, even the contents of the stomach were painful to spit out.
But fortunately, Li He had quick eyesight and quick hands, pinched Bai Ling's chin and forcibly restrained Bai Ling to prevent him from vomiting. And Bai Ling, whose mouth was gagged for a moment, subconsciously swallowed back, and finally successfully swallowed the mouthful of Chinese medicine into his stomach.
At that moment, Bai Ling frowned. The expression is uncomfortable, and I don't know how to say it.
That bewildered and distressed look is unusually pleasing and very cute.
Seeing Bai Ling like this, Li He couldn't help laughing. Although he did so, it was a bit rude. But for the sake of Bai Ling's health, Li He could only behave like this.
But fortunately, after taking the first sip of Chinese medicine, Bai Ling got used to it a little bit. Under Li He's urging, he held his breath and drank all the remaining Chinese medicine in one go.
The bitter Chinese medicine gulped down Bai Ling's throat and into his stomach, leaving waves of warmth.
Sure enough, although this traditional Chinese medicine cannot be effective immediately, this unique bitter taste can always make people feel at ease. The most important thing is that Li He's high-hanging heart can be put down properly.
