"Did you have a good meal with you in the hospital?"
The two stood in front of the car, Gu Ningzi's fingers stroked the corners of Chi Nuan's brows, and pulled a strand of hair stuck with thin sweat behind her ears.
Chi Nuan smiled and looked at her: "Yes, the dishes in the cafeteria here are quite rich, and the taste is much better than our school cafeteria anyway."
Gu Ningzi laughed when she heard her comparison: "...Do you want to eat cake?"
Chi Nuan: "Is there?"
Gu Ningzi: "Yes."
The two sat back in the car, and Gu Ningzi lowered the temperature of the air conditioner a little. Chi Nuan opened the beautifully packaged cake box, which contained a durian cake for one person.
Gu Ningzi's cell phone rang, she glanced at Gu Miaoyan.
"Take a call, my sister." She said to Chi Nuan before connecting.
Chi Nuan nodded: "Okay."
Gu Ningzi sat on the side, half reaching the car window, Gu Miaoyan didn't know what to say, she replied lazily, "Oh."
Chi Nuan quietly nestled in the passenger seat, dug a spoonful of cake and stuffed it into her mouth. The cream was sweet but not greasy, and the durian was just right. She couldn't help but narrow her eyes, extremely satisfied.
"Understood, let's talk about it when you come next month." Gu Ningzi listened to the phone and was distracted to see Chi Nuan.
Chi Nuan puffed out her cheeks and was concentrating on eating, like a soft cat being fed, making people want to get close to her and pet her.
Gu Miaoyan was still talking about something, Gu Ningzi moved her heart at will, and raised her hand to scratch Chi Nuan's chin.
Chi Nuan turned her head obediently, the corners of her lips were dipped in cream at some point, Gu Ningzi approached without warning, Chi Nuan even heard Gu Miaoyan asking, "Ah Ning, are you listening?"
Gu Ningzi was obviously not listening. She pressed the corner of Chi Nuan's lips and stuck out the tip of her tongue, licking the cream off it.
Chi Nuan squeezed the spoon, took a breath, and the call continued. She was ashamed as a cooked crab and avoided it sideways.
After eating the cake intermittently, it was time for Chi Nuan to return to the ward.
"Do you remember that time?" When Chi Nuan got out of the car, Gu Ningzi suddenly asked.
Chi Nuan: "Huh?"
Gu Ningzi: "Before the final exam, you eat strawberry-flavored ice cream."
Chi Nuan remembered that day, the two stood up and down the stairs, and Gu Ningzi approached to smell the taste of ice cream.
Realizing something, Chi Nuanxun blushed and replied in a nasal voice, "... um."
Gu Ningzi: "Well."
…
After seeing Gu Ningzi away, Chi Nuan walked into the inpatient building, and saw Chi Qingchuan standing in front of the elevator with a thermal bucket and a lunch box, reminding him of the beating floor. The people around were bustling into the open elevator doors, but he was the only one who didn't move.
"Brother." Chi Nuan walked over.
Chi Qingchuan turned to her, and for a second or two, his dazed eyes refocused: "...It's Nuan Nuan!"
Chi Nuan pointed to the elevator: "Brother, the elevator just went up, why didn't you go in?"
Chi Qingchuan glanced at the floor prompt in surprise, and as expected, the elevator went up and was now parked on the second floor.
"... I'm a little tired, I'm shaking." Chi Qingchuan explained.
Chi Nuan said, "Brother, why don't I accompany my sister-in-law in the hospital tonight, can you go home and rest?"
"What nonsense." Chi Qingchuan rubbed the back of her head with a smile.
The brothers and sisters went upstairs together, stood outside the ward, and found that the door was closed, Chi Qingchuan's hands were full, Chi Nuan went to twist the handle, and the door was locked from the inside.
The movement on the door attracted the people inside. Aunt Bai came to open the door. Seeing them, she smiled and said, "Come in, Xiao Wutong is eating delicious food."
The curtain around the hospital bed was pulled up. At this moment, Yue Yun's pain sounded from behind the curtain: "Mom, it really hurts to death, isn't he full yet?"
Yue Yun's mother's voice: "So my mother is great, you can't bear the pain? When Xiao Wutong grows teeth, he will still have to bite him."
Yue Yun dragged her tears and said, "Why does he take so long to eat when he is so young? He looks so ugly?? I'm in pain... Mom, take him away, I just had a belly cut yesterday, and you have to torment me like this. , I really can't stand the pain."
Yue Yun's mother: "There are so many mothers in the hospital, who didn't come here like this? How come you have to be special? Besides, what's so ugly about Xiao Wutong? Isn't that the case with just-born children, they grow as they grow!"
Yue Yun: "Please don't say this anymore, I'm hurting everywhere. Please, mom, take him away."
Chi Nuan and Aunt Bai looked at each other. Chi Qingchuan put the dinner he brought on the table, opened the curtain and walked in. When Yue Yun's mother saw him, she said, "Xiao Chi, you're here just in time, look at Yunyun, she's already a mother, and she's still a mother. So squeamish!"
Yue Yun was lying on her side, crying so much that the pear blossoms were raining, Xiao Wutong was in her arms, and her small mouth was sucking instinctively.
Chi Qingchuan said, "Mom, you've been tired all afternoon. Go out and rest. I've brought dinner here. Let's eat some first."
Yue Yun's mother said a few more words to Yue Yun and went out. She went out on the front foot, and the cry of the little phoenix tree sounded from the curtain of the rear foot.
Yue Yun's mother greeted Aunt Bai for dinner as usual, and Chi Nuan knew how to make milk powder for Xiao Wutong.
Sending the bottle to the curtain, Chi Qingchuan sat on the square stool beside the bed with Xiao Wutong in her arms, Yue Yun shed tears silently.
The pacifier was stuffed to Xiao Wutong, and he stopped crying immediately, sucking hard with his eyes closed.
Yue Yun opened her red eyes and asked Chi Qingchuan, "Am I being too selfish? But it's really painful... He just drank milk, and he sucked me very painfully, and the incision also hurt, and there was no comfortable place on his body. "
Chi Qingchuan comforted her: "You have suffered so much during pregnancy, and now it is great to give birth to Xiao Wutong. Nothing else is more important than taking good care of your body."
Tears welled up in Yue Yun's eyes, and she said, "I will try my best to be a good mother."
Chi Nuan came out of the curtain and saw Yue Yun's mother shove Aunt Bai and winked at her, probably because she felt that her son-in-law loved her daughter and was reluctant to bear her daughter's hardships.
Aunt Bai smiled, and when she looked back and saw Chi Nuan, she said, "Little aunt, come and have dinner too."
…
After that, Yue Yun tried to breastfeed Xiao Wutong, and the pain was not a problem. She gritted her teeth during the day to hold it up, but the night milk tortured her all night long. Struggling until the day she was discharged from the hospital, Xiao Wutong finally gave up breast milk completely and began to feed exclusively with milk powder.
Yue Yun's mother wiped her tears and said, "We Yunyun did our best. The baby suffered, and she didn't take good care of herself. Xiaochi, don't blame her."
Chi Qingchuan naturally had no complaints.
After Yue Yun was discharged from the hospital, she went directly to the confinement center to recover. She ordered a large suite, and her mother accompanied her 24 hours a day. After Chi Qingchuan's nursing leave ended, she went to work during the day and went to the confinement center at night to accompany her.
There are only a few days left before Chi Nuan starts school. She has endless review questions every day, and the review place has been changed from the room to the library two bus stops away.
Gu Ningzi came to the library to accompany her, sitting quietly beside her, copying homework, reading magazines or playing games.
On the last day before returning to school, Chi Nuan went to the library early in the morning to occupy a seat. Gu Ningzi didn't stay overnight the night before, they chatted a little late, Chi Nuan woke up early in the morning and prepared to bring the lunch, and at this time, she was tired and went to the tea room to collect water and make coffee.
The aroma of instant coffee quickly spreads through the air.
Chi Nuan shook the water glass to speed up the dissolution, and heard a boy say, "It smells so good."
She turned her head, the boy wore black-rimmed glasses, grinned and asked, "Don't you come here often? I've been here for a summer vacation, and I've only seen you in the past two days."
Chi Nuan said, "...Yes, I didn't come before."
After the boy got the water, he caught up with Chi Nuan and walked back to the seat with her. The two of them turned out to be at the front and back tables. The boy neatly packed his books and sat down opposite Chi Nuan quite familiarly.
Chi Nuan: "…"
Chi Nuan opened the question booklet and started writing questions.
"It turns out that you are also in the third year of high school? Which school are you in? It must not be the second middle school. I haven't seen you in school."
Chi Nuan kept writing: "One Middle School."
Boy: "Oh, it's very good. No. 1 Middle School is the best high school in Yuncheng. It's a pity that I didn't do well in the exam, otherwise we would be alumni."
Chi Nuan smiled politely, and buried her head to solve a big math problem, the boy said again hesitantly: "... Was the girl who accompanied you two days ago your classmate? Or a friend? She... Isn't she coming today? "
"..." Chi Nuan thought to herself, no way... She raised her head and looked at the boy who took the initiative to strike up a conversation seriously for the first time.
His myopia should be very deep, his lenses are thick, his eyes are not big, and his teeth are not neat. The only advantage is that his skin is quite white, but his face has freckles.
The boy was embarrassed by her and scratched the back of his head.
Pressing on the phone, Gu Ningzi's message was sent a few minutes ago, saying that he had already left for the library.
It was almost ten o'clock when Gu Ningzi arrived. Carrying a bag of snacks and fruits, she found Chi Nuan, came over, and before taking a seat, reached out and pinched her ears.
Chi Nuan raised her head, the boy sitting opposite, his eyes really brightened, and the expression on his face could be called "amazing".
Gu Ningzi pulled out the chair and sat down beside Chi Nuan.
Chi Nuan turned to Gu Ningzi, supported her cheeks, and asked her softly, "What delicious food did you bring?"
"A lot, do you want to eat first?" Gu Ningzi asked.
Chi Nuan: "Okay."
Gu Ningzi rummaged through the bag and took out the crisper. There was a cut watermelon in it, Chi Nuan saw that the watermelon was cut into large and small, various shapes, and immediately smiled and rolled her eyes.
Gu Ningzi said casually: "I didn't cut it."
Chi Nuan said, "I believe it."
The boy with glasses on the opposite side interjected at the machine: "Your No. 1 Middle School is usually very busy with homework, right? I heard that No. 1 Middle School has a lot of homework. Don't want to sleep until twelve o'clock."
Chi Nuan looked at Gu Ningzi. Gu Ningzi thought she wanted to let herself answer. Although it was inexplicable, she still said, "I don't know, I don't do my homework."
Chi Nuan: "…"
Boy: "… "
Gu Ningzi took out the silver fork and poked a small piece of watermelon to feed Chi Nuan. After Chi Nuan took the watermelon away, the red watermelon juice remained on the fork. Gu Ningzi opened her lips to hold the fork, and then slowly pulled it out of her mouth, out, and out.
Long and beautiful eyes, glanced at Chi Nuan.
This person... Chi Nuan covered her face halfway, her heart was pounding, why would she switch from doing quizzes in the room to the library
- Gu Ningzi is really too easy to be distracted.
The boy who was originally cheerful, after watching the interaction between them, his expression looked a little unnatural.
Gu Ningzi didn't have the time to worry about what the boy on the other side was thinking. She put on her headphones and played the game, almost as if she was set, and after four or five minutes, she fed Chi Nuan a bite of watermelon.
The boy looked at them more and more wrong.
Chi Nuan immersed herself in writing all morning questions and completed the set goals and tasks. Her neck was sore, she turned her neck to soothe her, Gu Ningzi saw it out of the corner of the eye, put her hand on the book, and freed her hand to squeeze Chi Nuan.
After pinching for a while, Chi Nuan patted her arm, indicating that she was ready. He turned off her earphones and asked her, "I made sushi rolls for lunch this morning, do you want them?"
Gu Ningzi listened to her without blinking, and nodded with a smile: "Okay."
Chi Nuan hugged Gu Ningzi's hand under the table, rubbing her cheek against her arm, watching her play games. The next second, I remembered something, and turned my eyes to the boy opposite.
The boy didn't say a word, just packed his schoolbag and left.
