[38]
The next day, C Central Hospital.
When Lu Ming woke up, it was already ten o'clock in the morning the next day. There was a person beside his bed, it was Chi Qiu who was sleeping soundly.
Lu Ming opened his mouth, as if something was blocked in his throat, making him unable to make a sound. He had an indwelling needle hanging in his hand, and when he looked up, the liquid in the bottle was only half consumed. And everything around him told him that this was a hospital.
He swallowed and wanted to get up, but found that if he moved a little, his whole body would feel severe pain.
Lu Ming's mind was in a state of confusion. He reached out and touched it, and felt layers of gauze. He hesitated for a few minutes before thinking about the accident in the theater.
Together with him, there are some fragments in his mind that night. The memory fragments he remembered were incomplete, not only that, more than half of them were stuffed back into the box in his heart and locked.
However, memories can be discarded, but the touch left by yesterday is clearly imprinted in Lu Ming's heart.
"Chi Qiu." Lu Ming couldn't help calling Chi Qiu's name in his heart.
He was taken aback by himself.
Lu Ming regained his composure and calmed down. His mentality towards Chi Qiu seemed to have undergone a strange change, but due to his own problems, this change was not as drastic as last night, and he himself could not clearly perceive it.
At this moment, he is more like a bystander who empathizes with those pitifully few memories, and there is still residual sadness and despair in his heart.
Lu Ming raised his hand with a headache and covered his face. After taking a long breath, he couldn't help but think of Chi Qiu's temperature when he held him.
Originally, Lu Ming didn't care about these temperatures, but now that he has experienced this, for some reason, he really wants to shake Chi Qiu's hand. It's a pity that Chi Qiu was still in a deep sleep, breathing steadily, just like an obedient puppy, keeping safe by his side.
Lu Ming began to have a soft flat ground in his heart. This feeling was actually very strange to him.
Enduring the pain, he couldn't help stretching out his hand to Chi Qiu, wanting to touch Chi Qiu's head.
Unfortunately, just as he was about to touch Chi Qiu's hair, the door of the ward was pushed open.
Immediately afterwards, before anyone saw him and heard his voice, Ji Yanchen's loud voice "broke" in the door: "It's almost noon, why is the breakfast shop downstairs in this hospital still packed!"
He stepped into the ward with a bag of various breakfasts, and he was angry at the first sight: "Chi Qiu, didn't I tell you to lie on the bed last night? I specially set up a double ward for the two of you. There are two beds. Can't you see the bed?"
Chi Qiu was almost awakened by fright, he raised his head sleepily, and looked at Ji Yanchen foolishly.
Ji Yanchen chattered endlessly: "Lu Ming has a little skin injury. Didn't the doctor repeat it to you twice? You should lie down and rest for a while—"
Chi Qiu yawned, still in the fog. He didn't sleep all night last night and only took a rest this morning.
He rubbed his eyes and apologized, and said in a soft voice, "I forgot, I'll go to bed in a while."
"Why didn't you forget about Lu Ming?" Ji Yanchen saw that Lu Ming woke up, "I bought some food for you two, the hospital is afraid that you will eat monotonously."
He put down his breakfast and said to Lu Ming: "I'll ask someone to help you deal with the matter of the theater first, and there should be compensation. Also, the doctor said that you were hit on the back and the back of the head, but fortunately it's nothing serious, just rest for a while .See if you can get up now. If you can’t get up, you can lie down and I’ll feed you.”
He couldn't let Chi Qiu, a "blind man", feed Lu Ming with a bowl, right
It was only then that Chi Qiu realized that Lu Ming was awake, and quickly turned around, unable to speak: "Lu Ming, you, you are awake."
"Hmm." Lu Ming's throat was extremely hoarse.
Chi Qiu hurriedly fumbled to get the water glass on the bedside table, fumbling around, but it was Ji Yanchen who helped him get it, and fed Lu Ming carelessly. Lu Ming choked on Ji Yanchen's method of feeding water, and couldn't help coughing.
Chi Qiu said distressedly: "Yan Chen, let me come!"
"Just feed me water, can't I feed it well? Chi Qiu, sit down quickly, don't you see that you are also hurt?" Ji Yanchen reminded Lu Ming with a vague meaning.
Lu Ming got a headache from Ji Yanchen's voice. He fixed his eyes and saw that Chi Qiu's right arm was wrapped in gauze: "What's wrong with your hand?"
"I was scratched last night, but it's okay, it's been taken care of." Chi Qiu touched Lu Ming's hand with his left hand, and felt relieved after holding it. He asked, "Does it hurt? Are you hungry? Can you sit now?" Get up? Would you like something to eat first?"
There are still a series of problems.
Normally, Lu Ming would answer one by one like a machine.
For some reason today, Lu Ming squeezed Chi Qiu's palm tightly, unable to take his eyes off Chi Qiu's injured arm. He actually felt a bit of distress, which was a feeling he had never felt before, his whole heart was numb, as if he was hanging on his breath.
Lu Ming answered irrelevantly: "Does your wound hurt?"
Facing Lu Ming's concern, Chi Qiu felt warm in his heart. He caught a trace of emotion on Lu Ming's face. In surprise, he shook his head, held Lu Ming's hand and put it against his face, and lowered his eyes: "I don't feel any pain at all."
Chi Qiu's eyes were slightly red, and he should have cried a lot yesterday: "You must be in pain... It's all my fault, I will never go to concerts again, and I feel happy when we chat at home on the day off."
Ji Yanchen stopped unpacking the lunch box. He looked at Chi Qiu with an expression of "hating iron but not steel", and then at Lu Ming. He hoped that Lu Ming could speak human words, but don't just say what Chi Qiu said. up.
Lu Ming's head was wrapped in gauze, and his expression was stiff.
Chi Qiu's tone was full of guilt, he lowered his head and continued: "You will be hit, it's all to protect me." It's okay not to mention it, but when he said it, his eyes became moist again.
Ji Yanchen held his forehead, really wanted to say a few words. It's just that when a young couple talks, it's not good for him to talk too much. Although, he's been talkative many times.
Fortunately, Lu Ming seemed to be enlightened today. He pulled out his hand and wiped away the tears from the corners of Chi Qiu's eyes: "This was just an accident, not your fault." The fault of the inspection, no matter how bad it is... Lu Ming frowned, "I didn't choose the theater well."
Chi Qiu sniffed and shook his head.
"Don't cry anymore." Lu Ming said, lightly pressing the corners of Chi Qiu's eyes with slightly cool fingertips, his tone softened, "If you cry any more, your eyes will be swollen."
Chi Qiu "looked" at Lu Ming in disbelief, feeling strange, but couldn't tell what was wrong.
Today's Lu Ming is very strange. Unlike the coldness from the inside to the outside, the current Lu Ming's voice is actually a bit gentle.
And in Ji Yanchen's view, this is the normal state that should exist between partners.
Ji Yanchen looked at the food that was about to get cold in his hands, thought for a while, and squeezed between the two of them abruptly: "Are you still eating?" He asked again, "Lu Ming, can you sit down?" up?"
Lu Ming tried it and was able to sit up, but he needed help from someone.
Undoubtedly, Ji Yanchen should be invited to help with this task. Lu Ming was worried that Chi Qiu's eyes would be inconvenient, so he lost face and asked Ji Yanchen for help.
Chi Qiu didn't walk away. When Ji Yanchen dragged Lu Ming to sit up with all his strength, Chi Qiu leaned forward and quietly supported Lu Ming's shoulder, lest he bump into him.
Considering that Lu Ming and Chi Qiu have a light diet recently, almost all the food Ji Yanchen bought was tasteless. He put them on the cabinet next to Lu Ming's bed one after another, and said, "You two eat first, and call the doctor if something happens. I have to go back to the hotel and come later."
Chi Qiu got up and hurriedly called him: "Yan Chen! This matter..."
Ji Yanchen knew what Chi Qiu was going to say, so he answered speechlessly: "Hey, don't worry, I didn't tell my brother, nor Aunt Chi."
The main thing is that Chi Qiu and Lu Ming are fine, and Ji Yanchen must have shut his mouth sensiblely. He had heard from Ji Feining earlier that Chi Lanyan had deep opinions on Lu Ming.
If she knew that Lu Ming brought her precious son to such a great fright and injured his arm, she might rush to City C in a hurry, and then the trouble would be serious.
After Ji Yanchen left, Lu Ming and Chi Qiu started to eat breakfast. Lu Ming was in pain. He glanced at the various lunch boxes, but he didn't want to eat any of them. After drinking half a bowl of porridge, he put down the bowl.
Chi Qiu heard the sound and asked, "Are you full?"
"I have no appetite."
"Do you want to try this steamed stuffed bun? You didn't eat much yesterday, and the doctor said you need to eat to gain strength." Chi Qiu handed over the vegetarian steamed stuffed bun in his hand, and coaxed, "We have to stay here I can only go home after staying for a few days, and I will ask Aunt Zhang to cook something delicious, so let’s eat something casually for a few days.”
Lu Ming didn't refuse anymore, he grabbed Chi Qiu's wrist and moved closer to him, and took a big bite. The buns are filled with chopped green vegetables and mixed with diced shiitake mushrooms.
"Is it delicious?" Chi Qiu's wrist was warm from being held.
