Ruan Jiujiu closed the window with a bang.
She told herself that she can't repeat the same mistakes, and she can't be soft-hearted. Cheng Juan is not a child, he will naturally go back when the snow is heavy, so she doesn't need to worry about it.
Ruan Jiujiu changed his clothes and cooked as if he hadn't seen it.
The snow outside is getting heavier.
This is probably the biggest snowfall in the new year. The gray sky is covered with an orange halo, and the whole world is buried in the white ocean. The glass window was covered with fog, and it was difficult to see the situation outside the window clearly. Ruan Jiujiu hesitated for a moment, walked to the window, and swiped his hands casually a few times.
The blurry scenery just now suddenly became clear. Looking down from the glass window, she almost didn't notice Cheng Juan.
He was still sitting on the steps, motionless for such a long time, with a layer of snow covering his body, as if he wanted to merge with the heavy snow.
"Tsk..."
Ruan Jiujiu frowned in annoyance.
Is he crazy
She circled around the house aimlessly, but finally, she still couldn't calm down.
We don't know when the snow will fall. If Cheng Juan really sat all night, he might have a high fever. He never cherished his body, as if the torture and pain in his body had nothing to do with him.
Ruan Jiujiu put on his coat, poured a bottle of hot water, screwed it up, and walked downstairs quickly.
Cheng Juan was still sitting on the steps, like a rock. With his absent-mindedness, it was a good thing that he could wear a down jacket without Ruan Jiujiu not reminding him.
Ruan Jiujiu walked up behind Cheng Juan and called his name: "... Cheng Juan."
"..."
He raised his head, and the snow on his body fell to the ground rustlingly. His complexion was much paler than usual, his lips were so pale that he could hardly see clearly, and his eyelashes were frosted. When looking at Ruan Jiujiu with lifeless eyes, they finally became a little more angry.
"Are you crazy? Why don't you go home with such a heavy snow?"
There was a long silence.
He hoarsely said, "There is no home."
His words were too bitter, like a thorn in Ruan Jiujiu's heart, for a moment, she was speechless.
Ruan Jiujiu took a deep breath and let out a long sigh.
She squatted beside Cheng Juan, helped him to pat the snow off his body, and stuffed the warm thermos bottle into Cheng Juan's arms. When she touched Cheng Juan's finger, it was as cold as ice, and she couldn't help frowning.
Cheng Juan didn't speak the whole time, but just watched Ruan Jiujiu's movements intently. When Ruan Jiujiu's eyes turned to him, he lowered his head as if he was afraid of annoying Ruan Jiujiu.
"Go to a hotel and sleep."
Ruan Jiujiu stood up straight: "After sleeping, the nearest plane will fly back and never come again."
Cheng Juan did not respond to her words for a long time.
He asked, "Is it because of me?"
"what?"
What Ruan Jiujiu didn't know was that Cheng Juan came earlier than she expected. He found her according to the address, but saw that Ruan Jiujiu had cut her hair short, as if she had made up her mind to completely break with the past.
His footsteps stopped in place, and he couldn't move forward until Ruan Jiujiu disappeared at the corner of the street.
"I hate this kind of stalking."
So, in order to avoid him, I would rather expend my time to go to another city and get a new hairstyle, just to break away from him.
"..." Ruan Jiujiu didn't know how to continue, so he had to avoid the topic, "Go back quickly, it's not easy to take a taxi when it gets dark. I'm leaving first."
She turns around.
At this moment, a hand grabbed Ruan Jiujiu's clothes and blocked her way. His strength is not heavy, as long as he pulls a little harder, he can break free.
"You can't repeat the same trick."
Ruan Jiujiu could no longer soften his heart when he said "don't go".
"I like you."
"..."
Ruan Jiujiu was stunned by the sudden confession.
The man sat on the steps, frozen stiff, his exhaled breath instantly condensed into a white mist. But he persistently and pitifully tugged at the hem of Ruan Jiujiu's clothes. It didn't look like he was confessing, he was begging, I hope Ruan Jiujiu can give him a little bit of tenderness.
There was a dead silence between the two, only the whistling of the wind continued.
"You go back."
Her tone suddenly became indifferent: "Don't come again."
Ruan Jiujiu pulled his hand away and walked straight towards the building without emotion. She thought that she had to be indifferent so that Cheng Juan would not have hope in her.
Rejecting so simply, a person like Cheng Juan who is emotionally withdrawn and afraid of being hurt will definitely not have the idea of entanglement anymore.
At this moment, Ruan Jiujiu heard the sound of the water bottle rolling to the ground.
Before she could turn her head, a strong force hugged her body tightly. He hugged her tightly from behind, as if he was afraid that Ruan Jiujiu would run away, and he didn't want to let go for a moment. Ruan Jiujiu was taken aback, she bumped into Cheng Juan's arms, unable to move, she was in a daze.
Such behavior is simply too unlike Cheng Juan.
"you… "
"Please."
His attitude was low and low, and his tone was weak and pitiful. If Tu Nan and the others saw Cheng Juan pleading like this, he would be scared to death.
It was difficult for Ruan Jiujiu to scold him ruthlessly, she only felt that Cheng Juan's skin was very hot, like a stove, it was so hot that it was abnormal.
Does he have a fever
Before Ruan Jiujiu could ask Cheng Juan, at this moment, he let go of his hand and fell to the ground, unconscious. Ruan Jiujiu was frightened by the way he smashed heavily into the snow.
"Cheng Juan!"
Cheng Juan had a high fever and was taken to the hospital by the 120 emergency department.
Ruan Jiujiu was very anxious. Fortunately, he was sure that Cheng Juan was fine. It was just that he had a fever, hadn't eaten for a long time, and his mood fluctuated greatly, which made him pass out like this.
Sitting by the hospital bed, Ruan Jiujiu sighed and didn't know what to say.
"How did you survive until now? People of this age can't take care of themselves."
Cheng Juan was hanging on the bottle, and hadn't woken up yet.
His forehead was hot, and the fever was still there, and he was muttering nonsense. Ruan Jiujiu heard it clearly when he got closer. He kept muttering not to leave, even his hands were flailing feebly.
Ruan Jiujiu was afraid that the needle on the back of her hand would be stuck in another blood vessel by his tampering, so she grabbed Cheng Juan's infusion hand.
Fingertips touched, Cheng Juan was faster than her, and grabbed her hand suddenly, as if he was bitten by a bastard.
It was like a sudden pause, he stopped talking nonsense, but the hand never wanted to let go.
"..."
Ruan Jiujiu couldn't laugh or cry: "I really owed you in my previous life." That's why she asked her to come over to pay the debt.
Ruan Jiujiu's hand was gentle and small, weak and boneless, while Cheng Juan's hand was broad and strong, covering her hand and holding the back of her hand. His palms were a little hot, and Ruan Jiujiu's heart trembled, secretly slandering Cheng Juan for taking advantage of him unconsciously.
She sat by the hospital bed, looking at Cheng Juan's appearance.
I don't know if it's an illusion, but I haven't seen him for a few days, Cheng Juan seems to be a little thinner and haggard.
Ruan Jiujiu sighed again.
She hated seeing other people's pitiful appearance the most. If Cheng Juan went on like this, how could she refuse ruthlessly.
…
After Cheng Juan woke up, he never let go of his hand, which made the nurse who came to change the infusion bottle both envious and funny.
Ruan Jiujiu had a thin skin, blushed in embarrassment, let Cheng Juan let go, and Cheng Juan began to play dumb.
"... blood is coming out!"
Cheng Juan had no choice but to let go of his hand after being hit with a hammer.
Next, wherever Ruan Jiujiu went, his eyes followed. If Ruan Jiujiu wanted to go out to get medicine, Cheng Juan would definitely follow behind with an infusion bottle, as if he was afraid that she would run away, and it would be easy to catch a thief.
Ruan Jiujiu felt pressured.
She peeled an apple for Cheng Juan, and Cheng Juan stared at it intently, people who didn't know thought they were watching a movie or something.
"I'll buy you food."
"Don't go." He subconsciously grabbed her wrist again.
Ruan Jiujiu: "...you have to eat."
Cheng Juan answered her with silent eyes.
Ruan Jiujiu had no choice but to buy food from the hospital and ask the nurse to bring it over. Cheng Juan has been staring at her for a long time, making Ruan Jiujiu feel uncomfortable, if she is not still sick, Ruan Jiujiu really wants to slap her.
After eating, Ruan Jiujiu was about to get up, but Cheng Juan followed immediately.
"I'm going to the bathroom."
"I will follow you."
Ruan Jiujiu glared: "Sit down!!!"
While Cheng Juan was in a coma with a high fever, Ruan Jiujiu sent Tu Nan a message. Fortunately, there is a record of Tu Nan's phone number, so she won't be caught blind. She reported the coordinates and waited for Tu Nan to come and lead the person.
When Tu Nan came, Cheng Juan fell asleep, and Ruan Jiujiu quietly left the ward. Seeing Tu Nan, Tu Nan had tears in his eyes, and those who didn't know thought something was wrong.
"sister in law… "
Ruan Jiujiu: "?" Isn't it because we haven't seen each other for a few days, does Tu Nan have such deep feelings for her? Why do you look like you have experienced life and death
How did she know that she had already died once in Tu Nan's heart.
"Take good care of Cheng Juan."
"Where are you going, sister?"
"Don't come to me again, and don't call me sister-in-law."
Ruan Jiujiu was very upset.
Seeing Cheng Juan like this, how could she not feel uncomfortable. But she had to take the initiative and resolutely cut off Cheng Juan's last thought, so that he would stop thinking about her, time would take everything away.
"No, you can't leave." Tu Nan said anxiously, "Boss...he hasn't eaten or slept for a few days. If this continues, people will die."
"He just can't think about it for a while, and it will be fine after a while. He will eat when he is hungry, and fall asleep when he is sleepy, and his body will help him adjust." Ruan Jiujiu turned his face away, "They are all adults, whoever leaves whoever And there are those who can't survive."
"The boss will."
"..."
Ruan Jiujiu couldn't find a reason to refute for a while.
The author has something to say: Tu Nan finally did something personal ╮(╯▽╰)╭
