summer monsoon

Lin Fengliang held his breath, only the sound of his own heartbeat was left in the silence.

Faintly, he did hear a quick gasp.

Back in front of the ice rink, the young man with a big mask was curled up against the wall. The mask had been torn off and thrown on the ground next to him. His left arm was on his knees, and his right knuckles were white, tightly twisting his T-shirt. Neckline, head drooping, eyes closed and gasping for breath, bangs sticking messily to the sweaty forehead, beads of sweat slipping from the temples to the ears, slowly evaporating a trail of water along the distinct contour line of the profile face and fair neck .

Lin Fengliang didn't dare to approach for a while, and tried to greet him as friendly as possible

"Hi! Are you all right?"

After waiting patiently for a few seconds, there was no response from the other party.Hearing the more intense panting, Lin Fengliang remembered that the bottle of asthma medicine in the bag seemed to be in Chinese. Looking at the other person's black hair, he guessed that this should be the owner of the pocket.

He crouched and raised his voice: "Are you okay! Do you need help!"

The fingers on the knee moved, and the other party raised his eyelids with difficulty.

The moment the eyes of the two sides met, Lin Fengliang gasped and rushed over tremblingly.

It was a pair of completely out-of-focus eyes.

Too much.It was only two hours since he took the bag by mistake, and the other party actually fell ill at this time.

Asthma attack. . .What is first aid for an asthma attack? . . .

Ah yes, open the windows for ventilation, but there are no windows here, so keep the airway unobstructed.

"You keep your legs flat, your head up, lean back"

Lin Fengliang looked at his transparent T-shirt, which was soaked with sweat, and the other party remained motionless.

What should I do, should I call an ambulance? . .It's too late what to do. . .Lin Fengliang held his left hand with his right hand, trying to calm down the flustered trembling.There is no one around, only you can help him, so don't be afraid, don't be afraid.

After taking a few deep breaths, Lin Fengliang gently shook the other's hand holding the T-shirt, it was wet and cold.

Lin Fengliang came to the other party's side, bent over to his ear, tried his best to comfort him in a low voice, and at the same time put his legs flat, guided him to turn slightly, let him leave the cold and hard wall, squeezed into the wall and Between the opponent's back, half hugged him, and then slowly separated his five fingers holding the neckline one by one.With great difficulty he pulled his hand off the wrinkled T-shirt.

That hand suddenly grasped Lin Fengliang's thumb as if asking for help.

Lin Fengliang didn't pull his hands away, he clasped his four fingers together to cover the other's tense back, and gently rubbed his palm with his thumb.

"Well, my name is Lin Fengliang. Try to relax and maintain your consciousness. I'm not very good at using this medicine. I'll give you the medicine. Can you do it yourself?"

I don't know if the comforting has worked, the body in my arms is no longer so tense, and the hands that are half clenched are also spread out.

Lin Fengliang took out the asthma inhaler and stuffed it into the hand that had managed to relax a bit, and slightly lifted the opponent's chin with his index finger and thumb to help him open the airway.

Lin Fengliang watched him let out a deep breath, his chest was obviously deflated, he stuffed the nozzle into his mouth with difficulty, his thumb and middle finger pressed against the bottom and top of the medicine bottle, he squeezed hard while taking a deep breath, and then closed it Annoyed.

Lin Fengliang unconsciously held his breath together with him, staring closely at the other's eyes which he didn't know when to close again.

After 10 seconds, he exhaled.

Lin Fengliang followed him and breathed slowly.

The other party leaned against his arms motionless, his breathing gradually became steady, and after an unknown amount of time, he opened his eyes again, and his breathing also slowed down.

Lin Fengliang's spirit, which had just been relaxed, tensed up again.

He doesn't know how to curse. . .Although it was unintentional that he took the purse and delayed his medication, but after all, he found him at a critical moment, so it was considered. . .saved him?

It may be that he has just experienced torture, his eye sockets are moist, and the bloodshot eyes have not faded away.But there was no blame in those eyes, but gratitude.

Lin Fengliang licked his lips and looked back at him quietly.He seems to have seen these eyes.

"You, are you okay?"

The other party blinked, and light blue capillaries could be vaguely seen on the eyelids.He didn't answer.

Lin Fengliang became anxious again.

Except for Xiao Ci, he couldn't remember how long he hadn't been so close to a person, so close that he could smell the eucalyptus and bergamot on his neck.

He is obviously an annoying clean freak, and he is obviously afraid of getting too close to people, but at this moment, in a panic, he is leaned on like this, but he doesn't want to move a bit.

"Me, it's my first time here... I just got off the plane today..."

Lin Fengliang tried to break this strange silence

"I took your purse in the bathroom. Well, it wasn't stolen. Your purse is exactly the same as mine... Even the ornaments are the same... But I just came back when I found it."

Seeing that the other party didn't answer, Lin Fengliang was a little anxious. He rarely took the initiative to talk to people, and he didn't know the law.I have no idea what to say in this situation,

"I'm really not a bad person, I can show you the ID, my name is"

"Lin Fengliang." A hoarse voice suddenly interrupted him: "I heard it just now."

With nothing in his arms, the other party slowly stood up.Lin Fengliang followed closely and stood opposite him.

"Thank you just now."

Lin Fengliang finally had the energy to look closely at the young man in front of him who was thanking him.

Thirty-seven slanted bangs, the top of the hair is fluffy, and the drenched bangs hang down on the forehead, vaguely covering the eyebrows, the bridge of the nose is strong, and the deer eyes and cherry lips.His eyes were clear and soft, like a puddle of water in his mouth.These eyes are really similar to Mr. A in the video.

Lin Fengliang thought of the hero of the Japanese school drama in the background of the lock screen that Xiao Ci changed from time to time.Xiao Ci always shows him the phone with a silly smile: Look, there are stars in my idol's eyes!

"I blame myself for being careless. I miss something from time to time. Today is really thanks to you." The other party stretched out a hand: "Ji Xinghui"

Lin Fengliang stretched out his right hand, and once again held the hand that was holding him tightly just now.

It turns out that there really are stars.It's in the eyes, and it's in the name.His hands had warmed up, warm and dry as the sweat evaporated.

Ji Xinghui gently pulled his hand, but didn't take it back.Lin Fengliang seemed to be in a daze.

"Lin Fengliang? Did I scare you?" Ji Xinghui's cheeks felt a little hot from being stared at uncomfortably. "Asthma is like this. It looks dangerous, but it's actually good. I haven't had an illness for a long time. Don't be afraid."

It is true that Ji Xinghui has not suffered from illness for a long time, especially after high school, he pays attention to moderate exercise, stays away from allergens, and tries to wear a mask outdoors to avoid inhaling floating fluff dust.But today I don’t know if I forgot to read the almanac when I went out, and I was temporarily called by Rourou to replace my brother-in-law who broke his front tooth to fix his teeth as a temporary team leader, and picked up the children from the summer camp to experience the ice rink. The pet guinea pig got into the car together, and when they arrived at the ice rink, they took out the chubby guinea pig and stuffed it into the temporary team leader Ji Xing's arms without asking.

Ji Xinghui knew that he was severely allergic to all animal hairs when he did the allergen test for the first time when he was a child.He went to the supermarket as fast as he could to buy a cage, threw the guinea pig into it, and put it in the ice rink lounge.Taking chances, he didn't go back to take a shower and change clothes immediately, but stayed at the ice rink all afternoon.When the sun went down, the brother-in-law and Rourou sent the summer camp back together. When he stayed behind and closed the door, he felt short of breath, but his pocket was gone.

Ji Xinghui vaguely remembered that when he went to the bathroom, he took out the disinfectant wipes inside to wipe the toilet seat. . .Then. . .Then there is no more.He immediately retrieved the toilet cubicle, the hook on the door was empty.

The information desk in the shopping center is empty at six o’clock. Foreigners pay more attention to their personal time. Even if someone picks it up and gives it to the information desk, it may take tomorrow to get it back.

"Just kidding, it just happened to be today." Ji Xing slid back on the seat to the ground, his eyes began to darken, his hands and feet became weak and he couldn't support himself.

He gasped for breath, trying to get as much oxygen as possible.

fine.Just get over it.He tore at the neckline irritably, trying to relieve the oppression in his chest.

I don't know how long it has passed, it seems to be a long time, and it seems to be only a few minutes.

After surviving waves of dizziness, Ji Xing turned black and exploded stars before his eyes.

He couldn't remember when he had the last attack, or whether he took any medication.But the torment he hadn't experienced for a long time made his limbs numb.

The wall behind him was so cold, and his body began to feel numb. The phone was in the pocket of his jeans, but he curled up and couldn't move.

He vaguely felt that someone was coming, but his eyes were pitch-black, flickering, and he couldn't make a sound from his throat. All his strength was used to breathe and take in oxygen.He opened his eyes in vain, unable to see anything clearly.

Suddenly, a soft palm held his hand.

Someone really is coming.At least no one will die here alone.

He helped him unfold his curled up body and put it behind him.The hard and cold walls became warm chests and abdomens.Ji Xing heard him say

"Well, my name is Lin Fengliang."

After recovering, Lin Fengliang realized that he had not let go of his hand.The other party's eyes were slightly worried, and kept repeating that I'm fine, don't be afraid.Don't be afraid.The palms of the two holding each other began to sweat.

Is he soothing himself?Lin Fengliang let go, opened the suitcase next to him, and hung the purse of the perpetrator on his chest.

Ji Xinghui finally stopped his thoughts and looked at his black Burberryhorseferry, which was exactly the same as his own. The reflective metal pendant on the zipper was a little less bumpy and scratched than his own.

"Do you like Howl's Moving Castle too?" Ji Xinghui suddenly smiled happily.

"Huh? What? A castle?"

The smile came suddenly, Lin Fengliang was a little taken aback, the deer eyes with the curved smile were a bit more lethal.

"Howl's Moving Castle, Hayao Miyazaki's animation movie, that's it." Ji Xing pointed back at Lin Fengliang's chest. "Did you get this from someone else?"

"I picked it by myself." Lin Fengliang looked away, "You students like to watch cartoons, I haven't watched them much, and I don't have time."

The "student" on the opposite side laughed dumbfoundedly.

"Lin Fengliang, how old are you?"

"I'll be 23 in a few days. How about you... How old are you?" Lin Fengliang tried hard to look talkative.

"Big 4," Ji Xinghui lowered his head and laughed again, "4 years older than you."

. . . . . .

Lin Fengliang was taken aback, on the surface he remained calm, his little deer eyes were too deceptive.

"This is your first time in Sydney? Have you found a place to live?" Ji Xinghui asked while helping him drag his suitcase.

Lin Fengliang was so frightened that he strode over to him and snatched back the handle of the suitcase, looking at him nervously.

"Pfft. I'm really fine. I accidentally touched an allergen today, plus I ran for a day, and there was a lot of pollen in late spring and early summer. Actually, I am very healthy." Ji Xinghui looked at the other party's suspicious expression, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

Lin Fengliang opened the saved address and handed the phone to Ji Xinghui.

. . .

If it were such a coincidence, this address turned out to be the independent grandmother's house in the backyard of Rourou's house, which was listed on the B&B website for rent all the year round.

"You may not believe it...I...will go here too." Ji Xing smiled back.
