Jiang Zhi had a fever again in the middle of the night, and the low-grade fever came back and forth.
Shen Luyan barely slept a wink and did not dare to let her take a lot of medicine. He could only use physical methods to cool her down and wipe her body with alcohol.
When it was almost dawn, Jiang Zhi's body temperature gradually stabilized.
Shen Luyan didn't sleep all night, and there were obvious blood lines in his eyes. He simply didn't sleep anymore. He got off the bed lightly, went to the bathroom and washed his face with cold water. The man in the mirror, with his facial features put together, Cold and refined.
Shen Luyan looked at himself with indifferent eyes, his eyes were dark and as deep as lake water, so quiet and deep that he could not see anything.
Calm and rational.
These two words have been Shen Luyan's motto for a long time.
Calmness allows a person to remain rational.
Reason will give him the upper hand that will never be defeated.
A boy of seventeen or eighteen years old is actually not a carefree and wanton boy.
It's just that the sunny appearance on the outside disguised the indifference on the inside. During that time, he was a person who was hot on the outside and cold on the inside.
People are constantly growing forward.
Shen Luyan knew that he had no empathy ability. He used to feel that he was very good and would not cause too much trouble.
Now he hates himself a little for being too cold.
Obviously it won't be difficult to come out with those words tomorrow night——
【I love her.】
But he just couldn't say it.
I can't convince myself to deceive myself.
Shen Luyan's eyes were swollen uncomfortably. He applied a cold towel for a moment, then opened the bathroom door and walked out, still the same cold and inhumane man.
Jiang Zhi didn't sleep well because he had a fever and cold.
She hasn't had a fever for a long time, and this feeling is really uncomfortable.
When I woke up, there was no one around me, and the thermos cup on the bedside table was filled with more than half a cup of warm water.
Jiang Zhi slowly sat up and took a few sips of warm water. Her lips were no longer as dry as when she first woke up. She didn't feel anything last night. The heat was uncomfortable in the middle of the night. When she was about to wake up, someone was there. Help her cool down.
Shen Luyan was indeed considerate when it was time to be considerate.
When he is willing to be nice to someone, he is really, really nice.
A good person is willing to give everything for him, and is addicted to the beautiful dream he weaves and cannot extricate himself.
He pulled away in time and did it cleanly, as if it was all your fault from beginning to end.
Jiang Zhi got up and stretched, then turned around and saw a packed suitcase next to the hotel room door.
She forgot whether to go back to Beicheng tonight or tomorrow morning.
She hasn't listened to Shen Luyan very carefully recently.
After Jiang Zhi went to the bathroom to wash up briefly, the cell phone on the bedside rang. It was her mother's call.
Jiang Zhi told her mother that she was going to go out for two days with her friends. She wiped off the water droplets on her hands and answered the phone, "Mom."
Fu Qingwan was in better condition while recuperating at home than in the hospital. The nursing staff did their best. She still has to sit in a wheelchair most of the time. She asked: "Is it fun there?"
Jiang Zhi took a lot of photos of her mother in the past few days. She said, "It's fun. It's very beautiful. I will bring you here to play in the future."
People in the south seem to have a special liking for snow.
It rarely snows in Nancheng. Every year it snows, it depends on luck.
Fu Qingwan smiled: "Okay."
Jiang Zhi couldn't help but start talking to his mother. He didn't notice that the hotel door had been gently pushed open. Shen Luyan had completed the check-out procedures in advance. When he came back, he heard her talking on the phone, very briskly. the sound of.
"I also took pictures of the forest behind the hotel. The super tall trees and their branches covered with snow are very beautiful."
"There are also many small stalls selling handicrafts in the small town we passed before going up the mountain on the first day. It's a pity that we didn't park there, otherwise I could have brought you some gifts back."
"Mom, you need to recover well at home and take your medicine. I will see you when I get back."
Fu Qingwan smiled again when she heard this, "Is it really that beautiful over there? Is there still snow in this season?"
Jiang Zhi nodded: "Yes. Very beautiful."
Fu Qingwan felt that only at this time would her daughter show her obedient and coquettish attitude, and her nerves would not be so tense. She asked, "Is there anything else?"
Jiang Zhi was silent for a while, thinking of the fireworks.
She actually knew full well that Shen Luyan set off the fireworks specifically for her.
She pretended not to know anything.
She pretended not to care.
Jiang Zhi has passed the age where she can be easily moved. In the past, she might have cried and burst into tears.
Now she feels nothing but regret.
What was she regretting? She couldn't tell herself.
Jiang Zhi came to his senses and whispered: "No more."
Fu Qingwan didn't really want to ask, so she quickly changed the subject, "When will you come back?"
Jiang Zhi thought for a while, "Maybe tomorrow."
Fu Qingwan always felt that she was still a naive child and needed her protection. "Send me your flight number before you get on the plane, and tell me when you get to the airport."
Jiang Zhi said: "Okay."
She hung up the phone and looked at the phone in a daze.
Shen Luyan stood behind her, looking at her back quietly.
There was not a single word related to him in the phone calls between her and her mother.
It had been several days since she told him that she liked the town at the foot of the mountain, and he would take her to visit it.
I don't know when Shen Luyan started to feel guilty and pity-like towards Jiang Zhi, and some ridiculous thoughts flashed through his mind.
Why wasn't she the one he met in the first place?
He would never love someone again the way he loved Jiang Suining.
I will never fall in love with a girl again with the kind of passion that can almost burn me to death.
Therefore, the best result for him is to stop liking her to this extent.
Shen Luyan thought of the words she muttered while half asleep last night. She seemed to be dreaming, grabbing his sleeves, sleeping uncomfortably, and opened her eyes in a daze.
She looked at him without blinking and reached out to touch his face. He heard clearly the words that came out of her mouth.
She said: "Shen Luyan, you owe me."
What is owed?
He doesn't feel that those things he did were a debt.
That is a willing exchange of equal value.
The starting point of the story is just a transaction.
Then whatever happens, whether it is pain or pleasure, should not be a debt.
He doesn't owe her anything.
Shen Luyan guessed that after she woke up, she had forgotten her sleep talk last night. He closed the door quietly and said, "You're awake."
Jiang Zhi turned around when he heard the voice, and when he saw it was him, his cold and indifferent face returned.
Seeing that she was a little nervous, Shen Luyan pursed his lips and said, "We have a flight tomorrow morning. There is a small town at the foot of the mountain. Do you want to go shopping?"
Jiang Zhi was stunned for a few seconds and quickly answered him: "No need."
She wasn't sure if he heard her call just now.
Shen Luyan looked at her face and fell into silence. After a long time, he said, "Let's go and have a look. We can just buy some gifts to give to our friends."
