The night rain stopped silently, and the hands of the clock passed twelve.

The bustling market outside the floor-to-ceiling windows fell asleep, only a few 24-hour shops were still lit, but the light was faint and could not penetrate the drawn curtains.

There was silence.

The person in his arms suddenly moved.He Chi woke up from a light sleep, and saw Xi Changlin turned over, put his hands on his chest, his eyes were half-opened, and he could vaguely see the sparkling water in his eyes.

"I can smell the aroma of barbecue." Xi Changlin said, his voice hoarse and soft, his nose flaring, sniffing in the air.

He Chi rubbed the man's head into his arms, and coaxed him in a low voice: "It's too late now, it's not good for the stomach, I'll eat when I wake up."

Xi Changlin reluctantly raised his head and said, "I'm so hungry that I can't sleep."

"Then you can't eat barbecue, I'll order you a bowl of porridge?" He Chi said warmly, raising his hand to touch the corner of Xi Changlin's eyes.

But the young man didn't cooperate, and his tone was stubborn: "Just eat barbecue, I want to eat crispy pork saury with ribs in chicken wings, and roasted brain flowers with rice cakes and broad beans."

After saying a few words, Xi Changlin was fully awake, his dark eyes widened, and he stared straight at He Chi.

But He Chi felt a little big in an instant, and he plucked the hair on his head angrily, and said, "Can't you eat some healthy food?"

Xi Changlin snorted coldly and withdrew from He Chi's arms, and said in a low voice, "I love junk food, it's cheap and delicious. Anyway, the legs are growing on me, so I'll eat it by myself. Go to sleep slowly. Goodbye friend."

The moment his foot stepped on the floor, He Chi sat up, lowered his gaze, and grabbed the paw of the man in front, "It's not good for your throat."

"Eating once in a while helps the stomach and intestines to digest." Xi Changlin said seriously.

He Chi: "..."

It's simply not right.

But Xi Changlin made up his mind, put on his slippers and walked towards the door. The corners of the thin pajamas rose and fell in the dimness, drawing a fleeting arc.

He Chi chased after him helplessly, grabbed his coat and put it on Xi Changlin's body, then pressed the man on the sofa and put socks on him.

"You can eat it, but you can't eat heavy oil, salt and pepper, and you are not allowed to eat so much." The man squatted in front of Xi Changlin, looked up at him, and made a concession.

Xi Changlin sniffed, very dissatisfied: "Boss He is really stingy."

He Chi nodded: "Yes, I'm just stingy. Take it easy, you'll be in the hospital sooner or later."

The young man raised his eyes and glanced around, raised his chin, and said, "But I'm already in the hospital."

He Chi snorted softly: "This time it doesn't count."

The young man shook his legs, and the corners of his lips curled up slightly.When he was pulled up by He Chi, he rolled his eyes and said, "He Chichi, don't you wear a dress yourself?"

"I'm in better health than some people, and I won't catch a cold when the wind blows." He Chi glanced at Xi Changlin, picked up his wallet and mobile phone, and led him out of the ward.

The brightness of the lights in the corridor has been adjusted to a low level, which makes viewing the green plants give off a sleepy feeling.Xi Changlin and He Chi walked over side by side, the former pinched the leaves dishonestly.

"A bunch of chicken wings and a saury." He Chi made a rule for Xi Changlin's supper, "One more bowl of corn soup or mung bean soup at most, nothing else is allowed."

"Add another grilled brain flower." Xi Changlin hooked He Chi's finger, bent his eyes and smiled, "I haven't eaten my favorite barbecue for more than half a month, brother, do you really have the heart to abuse me?"

He Chi couldn't bear to turn Xi Changlin's smiling face to the other side, and said, "Be patient."

Xi Changlin: "..."

The smell of barbecue in the air is very strong, and you can even tell which dishes are grilled, most of them are seafood, which makes people confused.

When he got downstairs, Xi Changlin smelled the barbecue restaurant through his nose.

The shop is not big, with tables and chairs on the street, barbecue grills in the open air, and half-person-high fans whirring to expel the smoke. The boss is quickly and skillfully oiling and turning over the vegetables on the grill.

He Chi was sent by Xi Changlin to find a clean table, and the latter ran to the freezer and put all the dishes he wanted into the basket.He saw it, but didn't say anything at this time.

The long street is still soaked in water, and it is cold and melted everywhere. When the wind passes, it will occasionally bring down the rainwater remaining on the leaves, and it will splash down, making the young people sitting next to them scream.

After Xi Changlin delivered the dishes to the barbecue boss, he wandered over to the convenience store next door, and He Chi's eyes lingered at the door.

The barbecue restaurant has attracted a new customer, a woman, wearing a professional skirt, tall and slender, with exquisite hairstyle, a pair of high heels sharp as a knife, the heel is at least twelve centimeters, making a rattling sound when stepping on the ground.

She appeared abruptly, and her temperament was incompatible with the environment in the store, but she attracted the attention of everyone in the barbecue restaurant as soon as she came.But she didn't look at anyone, and went to sit down opposite He Chi.

"Mr. He, I'm glad to meet you here." The woman said, taking out a pocket from her handbag and putting it in front of He Chi. There was a colorful thing in it. If I'm not mistaken, it should be a cat teaser .

"You are Director Qin's assistant." He Chi recognized her, clasped his hands calmly, put them on the side of the table, and said in a low voice, "It's so late, why did you come near the hospital?"

Du Qi smiled and took out the things in his pocket: "I think you will need this, so I picked this time to send it. This is a cat teaser sprinkled with catnip. Generally speaking, no cat will refuse .”

"Remember, when Xi Changlin leaves the ward tomorrow, make sure he wears this." She added.

A trace of suspicion flashed in He Chi's eyes, but Du Qi obviously didn't intend to ask him to ask, so he closed the bag and got up slowly.

She walked very fast, turned the corner of the street, and disappeared from sight.

The man's eyes fell on this cat teasing stick—the top of the wooden stick was tied with a red thread with two bells on it, and the fish-shaped toy was biting at this end, but there were a few brightly colored feathers stuck in the tail.

Cats have always been interested in fast-moving things, and the cat teaser really meets the requirements of this creature.

Thinking of this, He Chi picked up the cat teaser and shook it lightly in mid-air.

jingle--

The sound of the bell was clear and crisp, and it rang very long in the dark night.

He wobbled again.

jingle--

After two or three times, He Chi suddenly noticed something was wrong: it had been several minutes, and Xi Changlin hadn't come out of the convenience store yet.

The cat teaser was thrown onto the table with a slap, and He Chi stood up with a swipe, only to see a gust of wind blowing past his face, and everything around him melted away like mist—the light from the 24-hour convenience store, The smell of grilled meat blown by the fan in front of the grill, as well as the sound of drinking and punching at the table next door, all diffused into the night.

"Xi Changlin?" He Chi's eyes widened, and he walked towards the convenience store just now, shouting nervously.

At the same time, in the VIP ward on the top floor of the hospital, the young man who had shrunk himself into a ball and wrapped himself in the quilt trembled his eyelashes. When he heard someone calling him, he let out a bewildered "ah".

He Chi opened his eyes again.

The night was dark, and the rain outside the window was still pattering non-stop. From the gap in the curtain that was blown away by the wind, it could be clearly seen that the glass was covered with rain lines.

Xi Changlin had always had trouble getting up, and when he was with him, it was impossible for He Chi to draw the curtains tight and lock the windows while sleeping.

Now he was lying on the temporary bed in the ward, with nothing but the quilt beside him.

The barbecue and cat teaser just now were all a dream.

But the smell and touch seemed to be still around, and the heart that was suddenly lifted at the moment Xi Changlin disappeared has not let go until now.

He Chi got off the bed, dragged his slippers to come to Xi Changlin, and held the hand protruding from the quilt.

"Chichi, did you have a nightmare?" Xi Changlin tilted his head, opened his eyes a little, and asked He Chi softly.

"Are you hungry?" He Chi asked.

It took Xi Changlin a long time to understand what He Chi was asking. He thought for a while and nodded, "I'm a little hungry."

The man's eyebrows twitched, and he couldn't help but increase his strength, "What do you want to eat?"

"You won't let me eat what I want." Xi Changlin said in a low voice, his eyelids drooping again.

"What do you want to eat?" He Chi repeated nervously.

After a long time, Xi Changlin said: "When you ask this way, do you mean that you will buy me whatever I want?"

He Chi's voice was deep and deep: "Of course not."

"Then I won't say anything." The young man lowered his raised eyebrows and said expressionlessly.

He Chi sat in the chair beside the bed, put Xi Changlin's hand on the side of his face, kissed his fingertips lightly, and said, "Hey, tell me, what do you want to eat?"

Xi Changlin moved slowly under the quilt, turned over, and buried his face in the pillow.

There was the sound of shallow breathing, and just when He Chi thought he was asleep and would not talk anymore, because his head was covered by the pillow, he said in a slightly hairy voice: "How about eating you?"

It is different from the experience in the dream.He Chi looked at the lump in the quilt, and heaved a long sigh of relief.

It was two o'clock in the morning, and He Chi sat in the chair for nearly half an hour before letting go of Xi Changlin's hand.Just when he was about to get up, the man suddenly raised his hand and touched it twice, encircling his wrist.

"Chichi." Xi Changlin said slowly, his voice was so soft that he was almost drowned by the sound of rain outside the window, "If you are afraid of having nightmares again, you can sleep with me."

At [-] a.m. the next day, the machine that had been busy all night finally spit out Xi Changlin’s examination results. The doctor felt a headache holding these films—there was no serious problem, but given that the patient who had just had a slight cerebral palsy not long ago Concussion, and said last night that I was dizzy, tinnitus, nausea, and vomiting. After discussing with several experts, they decided to continue the previous inspection results.

So Xi Changlin ushered in the diagnosis of "slight concussion" for the second time in his life, and got the will to drink more hot water and rest more.

Gong Zhuo next door sighed, very dissatisfied with the result.

"Then you won't be able to live here for a few days?" Young Master Gong said, looking at the person standing beside his bed, who was slowly eating torn bread.

Xi Changlin had a smile in his eyes: "Young Master Gong has such a vicious heart. Everyone wishes me a speedy recovery, but you only hope that I will stay in the hospital for a long time."

"Isn't this about sharing blessings and suffering together? Only when we share adversity can we see the truth." Gong Zhuo looked upright, and stretched out his hand, "Can I borrow your mobile phone? I want to order a takeaway. In order to prevent I use the modern lifestyle to eat those happy foods, and my brother took my phone away."

Xi Changlin dragged out an "Oh", and turned to He Chi to ask for his cell phone.

"Gong Zhuo's breakfast is already on the way. There are rice, vegetables, soup, and desserts. The nutrition is balanced." He Chi was sitting on the sofa, using a tablet to deal with things. Without raising his voice, "As for you, don't even think about taking this opportunity to eat junk food."

"Look, my conditions are also very difficult." Xi Changlin shrugged towards the palace.

Gong Zhuo put on a serious expression: "Brother, then we should join hands to create a world for ourselves."

"for example?"

"For example, if we trick Brother He over here, you will be responsible for blindfolding him, and I will be responsible for stealing the mobile phone from his pocket."

He Chi raised his hand to grab Xi Changlin's paw that was placed in front of him, and couldn't hold back a "tsk".

"Chichi..." Xi Changlin thought for a while, then bent down abruptly, lifted the tablet from He Chi's other hand, straddled his legs, and looked into his eyes with a smile, "Chichi, If I sacrifice my hue, would you give me my phone?"

He always does what he says, no matter what other people will answer. As soon as he finished speaking, he leaned over and touched the corner of He Chi's lips. At the same time, he slid his hands down his waistline dishonestly. But it didn't go in, but made a circle to test lightly and heavily.

"Xi Miao, are you skinny again?" He Chi raised half of his eyebrows.

"No, I'm very good." Xi Changlin bent his eyes and smiled, then pecked He Chi's lips again.

He Chi squinted his eyes, couldn't bear it anymore, lifted Xi Changlin's chin almost roughly, and after biting his lower lip, he opened the lip with the tip of his tongue and kissed him deeply.

Young Master Gong, who was hanging by one leg and unable to move on the bed, rolled his eyes to the sky, and after the two people who were tired of sitting on the sofa separated, he cleared his throat and said, "I'm full, I can't eat anymore, thank you You two put on a performance for me."

"You can't do this." Xi Changlin leaned on He Chi's shoulder, turned his gaze, and smiled at Gong Zhuo, "I sacrificed a lot for the happy future of the two of us."

"Then please close the curtain next time, thank you." Gong Zhuo fell back on the pillow and snorted coldly, "You can give me your phone now, I want to eat spicy crayfish with garlic scallops and grilled fish with pickled peppers, And you?"

A beautiful arc crossed the air, and Xi Changlin took out the mobile phone from He Chi's pocket and landed it in Gong Zhuo's hand accurately. Then, the young man thought for a while, and said, "I want a Ma Xiao and a Garlic. Enough."

Without further ado, Gong Zhuo clicked into the food delivery app to search for the store.

Not long after the order was placed, the sound of high heels came from outside.

It was Emi who came. After knocking on the door, she walked up to He Chi and handed him a sack: "Sir, someone asked me to hand this over to you. It's a cat teaser with catnip sprinkled on it. "

He Chi's eyebrows twitched, and Xi Changlin took out the things in his pocket before him.

The thread tied on this cat teasing stick is red, the fish's mouth bites on the end of the thread, and a few brightly colored feathers are inserted into the fish's tail. When you shake it lightly, you can hear the crisp bell ringing.
