aftershock

"Is he still awake?"

When Uncle Xu opened the door, Lin Wang didn't have time to exchange greetings. He saw Gu Lv was already waiting on the stairs. He was wearing home clothes and looked very tired. Gu Lv hummed, then frowned and said, "I've been having a low fever."

Lin Qiao came here with Lin Wang, and Gu Lu absently nodded at her, and she followed Lin Wang upstairs to the bedroom without being stopped.

Jiang Yuan was covered with a quilt, the air conditioner was turned on in the room, and the temperature in the room was very high. Lin Wang couldn't help but laugh. He asked Gu Lv to open the window to ventilate.

Lin Wang looked at Jiang Yuan's wound and did a simple physical examination. He didn't think there was any major problem. He still felt that Gu Lv was too nervous. "People are just sleeping, or they don't want to talk to you."

"But he never had a fever."

"38 degrees, if you want him to feel better, you can apply some cold water to cool him down." Lin Wang stood up, trying not to rest his eyes and fingertips on Jiang Yuan's face for a long time, he paused, and said seriously, "Gu Lv , don't let him get hurt."

Lin Qiaoben stood quietly at the side, and she slowly walked to the edge of Gu Lu's dark wood bed and sat down, looking at the man who was sleeping peacefully in the middle of the bed and made Gu Lu nervous.

She raised Jiang Yuan's wrist, and saw the green and yellow fingerprints that Lin Wang didn't see at a glance.Under Gu Lu's gaze, she gently rolled Jiang Yuan's eyelids, and took Lin Wang's put away stethoscope to listen to his heartbeat for a long time.

Lin Wang just used a stethoscope to measure Jiang Yuan's heart and lung sounds, but he didn't hear any abnormalities, so he asked doubtfully, "Sister?"

Lin Qiao frowned and took a brand new syringe that Lin Wang put in the bedside box. When she opened it and was going to stab Jiang Yuan, Gu Lu knew that she would not hurt Jiang Yuan, so he still took precautions to stop it. "What is this for?"

Lin Qiao asked strangely, "Didn't you want to wake him up, just prick him and he will wake up."

Lin Wang frowned, seeming to understand, "Sister, you mean..."

"I think he's sleepwalking."

"Sleepwalking?"

Lin Qiao nodded, "It doesn't have to be walking around to be sleepwalking. He fell asleep, deep sleep, close to unconsciousness or self-awareness established by independent personality. Generally, this kind of situation occurs, and most of them are patients with mental problems. .." She didn't finish her sentence. Generally, patients with serious psychological problems such as schizophrenia or paranoia and depression tend to stay in dreams for a long time. If they go on for a long time, they will develop into actions.

But she didn't go on, Gu Lv's expression seemed not surprised.

Seeing that Gu Lu didn't even want Jiang Yuan to be poked with a needle, Lin Qiao didn't know whether he should feel ridiculous.

Just as she was about to put down the needle, Jiang Yuan's wrist, which she held in her hand, moved slightly. Before she could turn her head to look over, Jiang Yuan suddenly woke up. Before she could speak, Jiang Yuan pushed her from the bed forcefully just as she was about to get up Open, that one almost made her roll and sit on the ground, even though she subconsciously avoided Jiang Yuan with the needle, she was still poked.

"Jiang Yuan?" Gu Lv stood close, and he still had time to support Lin Qiao.He hastily moved Lin Qiao safely behind him, looking at Jiang Yuan with nervous eyes.

Lin Qiao thought, no wonder he didn't want Jiang Yuan to be poked, it really hurt a little.

After Jiang Yuan broke free from his hand, he immediately shrank his whole body back. He closed his eyes slowly, trying to shake his muddy mind, when he suddenly heard someone call him, and subconsciously looked over, it happened to be Gu Lv Guarding against his appearance of hurting Lin Qiao, he realized that the person pushed away by him just now was actually Lin Qiao.

Jiang Yuan looked around the familiar bedroom he was in, and then looked at the three people standing in front of the bed who were stammering. The feeling of difficulty breathing suddenly rose. After a burst of tinnitus, he covered the back of his head and looked back Moving, his fingers gripped the quilt tightly, his expression stiff and confused.

"Jiang Yuan, what are you talking about?"

Gu Lv didn't dare to catch him, Jiang Yuan lowered his head full of contradictions, looking as if he was about to break free from him again and run away.Only when Jiang Yuan was not paying attention, he got very close did he hear Jiang Yuan muttering in a low voice, "Did I come here by myself...I didn't want to come..."

Gu Lv felt a dull pain, he stepped forward and hugged Jiang Yuan, hugging him together with his shoulders. "I know, I know."

Jiang Yuan lowered his head, pursed his lips, and slowly shook his head, "I'm sleepwalking."

"You didn't, you're awake now."

Jiang Yuan didn't speak anymore, he didn't know if it was pain or something else, he put his head against Gu Lv's shoulder vigorously, Gu Lv wanted to touch the back of his neck with his hand, Jiang Yuan was soft enough to use a kind of two-person He asked him tremblingly in a voice that was not necessarily audible, "I... I didn't take the things away... Am I right..."

Gu Lu heard it clearly, he looked at Jiang Yuan's bewildered panic in disbelief, Jiang Yuan's flickering eyelashes were afraid that the frequency of falling would cause tears to fall, and he was trying to hold back his eyes, carefully hiding in his arms middle.

Gu Lv suddenly realized that he had made a mistake in describing it. His heart was not pulled into small squares by the thread, but was torn open in half, and then held the most fragile thread, the thinnest. I used a sewing machine to mend the needles for him little by little, and then told him that they fell apart again.

Lin Qiao stood by the door with tears in his eyes.Lin Wang patted his sister on the shoulder, and the two of them walked out the door lightly.

"He will like a boy, never because of mental illness. Sister, never."

Lin Qiao wiped the area around his eyes dry with his index finger, and forced a smile, "I see."

"Jiang Yuan. He..."

"Xiao Wang, did you specially visit my teacher because of Jiang Yuan?" Lin Qiao asked again in a low voice, "Do you... like him too?"

"Yes."

"Ok?"

"It's for him, but it's not what you think"

Lin Wang denied with a frank smile that he liked Jiang Yuan, but no one needed him to admit it.He doesn't need anyone to worry about him, he likes Jiang Yuan, he just likes it, he doesn't need to get it, he likes it without any hope.

He is different from his sister, his liking will not stop abruptly for any reason one day, not even giving up.

Lin Qiao rubbed her itchy fingertips where she couldn't see the pinhole, and looked back at the closed door. There was no chance to come back to this door in this life.

"Xiao Wang, does Jiang Yuan like Gu Lu very much?"

"Yeah, he likes it. Deeper than us."

"Gu... Where's Gu Lv?"

Lin Wang bent his lips, "He told me before that he has loved this person since 20 years ago, and he has only loved this person. Sister, you saw it, you can stop, come back to us, and don't worry about it anymore. You can find the cause of his choice in psychology, but you can’t find it.”

"That's it."

Lin Wang hummed, and a worried expression gradually appeared on his face.

Gu Lv leaned against the head of the bed, his injured hand was still pacifying Jiang Yuan back and forth along the ridgeline behind Jiang Yuan's back, Jiang Yuan's hot breathing gradually calmed down, but no matter how much Gu Lv coaxed him in a low voice, he would still He didn't speak again.

Gu Lv let him lie on his body like a child. It was an adult's body, but it was as light as a pile of cotton on his chest.He lowered his head and kissed Jiang Yuan's right forehead, this kiss stayed for a long time, Jiang Yuan closed his eyes after blinking slowly a few times.

"Are you going to sleep?"

"I'll help you take a shower and then go to bed, eh?"

“…”

"Jiang Yuan?"

Jiang Yuan seemed to have moved, probably because he was uncomfortable lying on his stomach. He supported Gu Lu's shoulders with both hands, and stepped down from Gu Lu's body. Gu Luxu helped his arm to prevent him from falling, but Jiang Yuan was lying on the bed After sitting sideways for a while and then stood up, he got out of bed and asked patiently, "Where are you going?"

From Gu Lv's line of sight, one can see the wound where Jiang Yuan lacked a piece of hair. It was exposed by Lin Wang who didn't put gauze on it in time after changing the dressing. The hideous stitches were still stained with dark red blood. How to pick up his skin, the process of going back and forth through the scalp one by one, he had no choice but to look away from his numb eyes, trying to hold Jiang Yuan's hand, "Jiang Yuan, where are you going?"

Jiang Yuan's eyes wandered, and he was so distracted that he couldn't concentrate. He weakly pushed away Gu Lv's hand, lowered his head and murmured, "I want to go home...

Gu Lv's heart was silent, and his exquisite facial features showed a tinge of pain and embarrassment, "My home is your home."

Jiang Yuan shook his head slightly, his semicircular eyes were lowered, and a light red tail protruded from the tip of his long eyes. He subconsciously let go of his tightly clenched fingers, and was about to grab his leg. Gu Lv quickly reached out to grab it. , he pretended not to know anything, put his five fingers into Jiang Yuan's, leaned over and raised his hand to look into his eyes, and said softly, "Do you miss Liang Ji? Let's go to Canada to see him later, okay?" .”

Jiang Yuan was unwilling to talk to him from the beginning to the end, and he didn't seem to want to listen. Although he threw himself away lightly, the feeling of rejection was not much better than that of others. Gu Lv watched him step into the bathroom with sloppy steps, and gently opened the bathroom door. locked.

Gu Lu was startled, he had never seen Jiang Yuan like this, Jiang Yuan had never lost his temper with him, nor had he rejected his approach.

After he froze for a moment, he knocked on the bathroom door again, "Don't let your hair get wet, I'll wait for you outside."

The bathroom had been filled with water at some point, Jiang Yuan went straight in and sat down, maybe there was too much water, maybe he was too light, the feeling of floating was heavy, the water pressure made his chest tight and uncomfortable, he was walking toward the bathtub arm It was only when he stretched out his hand that he realized that his clothes were wet, oh, his pants were also wet, and he forgot to take them off.

He retracted his hands tiredly, allowing himself to swing back and forth in the water.He stared at the frosted door, thinking that Gu Lv said just now that he would wait for him outside.Jiang Yuan didn't want to know if Gu Lv would wait for him, he was afraid that he would be sad if he found that Gu Lv wasn't waiting after he went out, so he didn't think about going out.

His self-control is not loyal enough, and he always runs clean when he is weak. Jiang Yuan felt that he had become God's vision again, watching himself holding his breath and slowly sinking into the water, he heard himself counting number.

1.2.3 ... 4.5 ...

If he persisted, he heard a voice in his head encouraging himself, if he persisted, he could go home in just 179 seconds.
