I am terminally ill, but I am healing the world with my songs
#18 - Chapter 18 The Way Home is Long and Short
“Cough, cough! ... Cough... Cough cough cough! ...”
“Why are you so wet? You'll catch a cold! Come with me!” Cheng Yudie grabbed Wen He's icy hand and hurried forward.
“Go where...?” Wen He asked subconsciously.
“You must have missed the last bus here. In any case, it's cold outside now, so come back to my apartment first.”
Wen He rationally wanted to refuse, but his survival instinct prevented him from speaking.
He couldn't even go home now.
His body was soaked by the rain, and the biting cold made him shiver.
Cheng Yudie's apartment was very close, and they arrived in a few minutes.
It was a clean and beautiful loft-style apartment with a faint fragrance.
“I'm fine... It's getting late, so I shouldn't bother you...” Wen He was a little resistant.
But more than that, he was afraid.
He was afraid that his dirty self would contaminate this sacred place.
“What are you talking about? Come in quickly.” Cheng Yudie didn't care so much and pulled him in.
Wen He stood there soaking wet, feeling a little overwhelmed.
“Go take a hot shower first. There are clean towels in the cabinet under the sink.” Cheng Yudie pushed Wen He into the bathroom and then closed the door.
Wen He looked at the bathroom, which was much larger than his own room, and felt a little uneasy.
But he was really cold now.
And…
It would be a little too pitiful to die like this.
Let's live first, at least get through today.
Hearing the sound of the shower running in the bathroom, Cheng Yudie also breathed a sigh of relief, as if a stone hanging in her heart had finally landed.
Knock knock knock…
After a while, the bathroom door was knocked.
“Classmate, I've put the change of clothes at the door for you!” Cheng Yudie said from outside the door.
“Okay, thank you.” Wen He responded.
After taking a shower, Wen He opened the bathroom door and walked out.
“You're done washing up? Come over here, I've made ginger tea for you, it can dispel the cold.” Cheng Yudie's voice came from the kitchen.
“This is too much trouble for you.”
Wen He had never been treated like this before, and he didn't know what to do for a moment.
“What's the trouble? It's just boiling water, don't worry.”
As she said that, Cheng Yudie walked out of the kitchen with the ginger tea.
Seeing that the clothes Wen He was wearing fit well, Cheng Yudie nodded in satisfaction: “I didn't expect my pajamas to fit you perfectly. It's just that these wide-leg pants are a bit short, but it's okay, just wear them as capri pants.”
“Pajamas!?” Wen He was slightly surprised, and his face turned red instantly.
He was still wondering at the time, Cheng Yudie was 1.65 meters tall, but Wen He, who was 1.8 meters tall, wore them particularly well.
“Yes, this kind of loose, large-size T-shirt is perfect for wearing as pajamas at night, you don't even need to wear pants. How is it, does it smell good~” Cheng Yudie approached with a mischievous smile.
“I I I... I don't know...”
Wen He had never been teased like this before, and his face turned red + stuttering was all there.
“Hahahaha, you're still as fun as before.” Seeing that her trick had worked, Cheng Yudie laughed happily.
The silver bell sound of her laughter was still as pleasant as before.
“Okay, drink it quickly, I won't bully you anymore.” With that, she handed over the ginger tea.
Wen He took it and was a little dazed. He looked up at Cheng Yudie in disbelief, only to see that her pair of watery eyes were also looking at Wen He.
“What's wrong?” She asked.
“Nothing…”
Wen He blew away the heat and took a sip of the ginger tea.
Suddenly, a warm current nourished his body and dispelled the cold.
Compared to the warmth of the flesh, his cold heart was even warmer.
As he drank…
Wen He's nose felt a little sore.
He endured it, unwilling to let Cheng Yudie see it.
It would be too inexplicable to start crying after drinking a sip of ginger tea.
But thinking about it…
The few songs he sang in his previous live broadcast had greatly increased his popularity, although he felt that he was not worthy of being sought after by so many people.
But it is undeniable that he has indeed had a certain degree of popularity recently.
And he did use his real name.
Could it be that Cheng Yudie recognized him?
Then, after seeing the video of "The Deep Sea" that he posted, she came over?
Although it was a bit too narcissistic to say that.
But…
On a rainy night, Cheng Yudie appeared at the bus stop like this, wasn't it a bit too strange?
“Why don't you go home at night? What are you doing wandering around on the side of the road?” Wen He changed his question, intending to ask indirectly.
“You're asking me, I still want to ask you, why are you sitting at the bus stop in a daze, soaked all over? Is this some kind of bizarre performance art?”
Not only did Cheng Yudie not answer, but she asked back.
Compared to why Cheng Yudie would appear there, Wen He's behavior was indeed much stranger.
“I work nearby. I had to work overtime later than usual today, and it suddenly started raining on the way. When I ran to the bus station, the bus had already left, so…” Wen He explained.
Hearing this, Cheng Yudie suddenly “pfft” and laughed.
“Hahahaha, why are you so miserable! I was wondering why you were sitting there like a drowned rat. It's too miserable hahahahaha” She couldn't help but laugh.
Cheng Yudie's smile was very contagious, and Wen He's originally tense and uneasy heart relaxed a lot.
“It is a bit miserable…”
Seeing Cheng Yudie smiling so happily, Wen He scratched his head and smiled too.
“It's more than a bit, it's just too miserable. I thought this kind of thing would only happen on the internet. I didn't expect you to really encounter it.”
“That's how bad luck is.”
“I remember you used to be quite unlucky, everything went wrong, the description of bad luck is too right.”
At this moment…
An orange, fluffy gas cylinder leisurely walked down from the second floor.
“Is this the cat you raised?” Wen He's eyes lit up.
“Yes, her name is Duo Duo. I feed her a lot, and she eats a lot.” Cheng Yudie introduced the big orange gas cylinder.
As soon as Duo Duo walked downstairs, she lay down directly on the ground, as if taking one more step would cause her to die on the spot.
“Is it troublesome to raise a cat?” Wen He asked curiously.
“It's not troublesome. Just put the food and water where she can reach it, and she will take care of herself. Usually, I just scoop the poop.”
“I see…”
Wen He had always wanted to raise a cat, but it was only limited to thinking about it.
“Speaking of which, you haven't said why you're wandering around in the middle of the night.” Wen He was obviously much more relaxed now and was no longer so restrained.
“Hehe…” Cheng Yudie scratched her head embarrassedly and said, “There's an aunt selling fried skewers there, and I was a little greedy. Although I knew she might not be there because of the rain, I still wanted to try my luck.”
Wen He also often saw the aunt Cheng Yudie was talking about.
Because of overtime, Wen He always got off work very late, and he hadn't eaten all night. When he passed by her fried skewer stall, he was always very hungry.
If you say that, it makes sense.
“Do you usually use Douyin or something like that?” Wen He was still a little worried.
“Yes, I'm a heavy Douyin user, but I've quit for a while recently. I'm preparing for the postgraduate entrance exam. That thing is too tempting for people, so I uninstalled it. What are you suddenly asking this for? Do you want to add me as a Douyin friend?”
“It's nothing, I'm just asking casually. You're already preparing for the postgraduate entrance exam?” Wen He quickly changed the subject.
“Yes, I live here because I want to concentrate on the postgraduate entrance exam. It's easy to get distracted in the dormitory. For this reason, I uninstalled all entertainment such as games and Douyin. Damn it, if I still can't pass the exam, I'll just jump.” Cheng Yudie looked like she was ready to die.
At this time, Wen He saw that his phone's battery had been charged a lot, so he got up and said, “It's getting late, I'll go home first. These clothes…”
“Just wear these clothes first. Don't worry, I still have pajamas. Just bring them over next time you come to play.”
“Okay, go to bed early, good night.”
“Good night.”
After the two exchanged contact information, they said goodbye.
The road home was very long, so long that the navigation showed it would take two hours.
The road home was very short, so short that you were already home before you knew it.
