different paths

"Who?" A deep voice came from the room, a bit hoarse and weak, not the voice of clear stream and rushing stone in Jia Wuchai's impression at all.

Jia Wukai picked up the bag of charcoal from the ground again, stood at the door of the room, raised his hand, and did not knock down for a long time.Finally, he cleared his throat and said, "Guest officer, the boss sent me up to add charcoal for you."

The people in the room tried their best to hold back their coughing, and whispered: "Come in."

Jia Wuhai took a deep breath, adjusted his facial expression, and pushed open the door.

He thought of countless times when he reunited with Yue Chentan. Yue Chentan either looked at him with a sneer on his face, or passed him by with cold eyes, or cursed at him, or beat him up severely, But he never dreamed that when the two met again, it would be like this.

In the dimly lit room, Yue Chentan propped up half of his body and leaned against the bed.He was only wearing a white tunic, and a snow-white cloak on his upper body.Her long hair was scattered like a crow's feathers, her face was bloodless, her lips were darkened, and her bottomless eyes contained a look of tiredness that was hard to hide.A charcoal basin was placed beside his bed, but the red-hot charcoal seemed to be unable to warm his body at all. He clasped the cloak tightly, and his body still trembled uncontrollably from time to time.

Hearing the sound of pushing the door, he looked over quietly.

Seeing Jia Wukai so calmly, his nose felt sore, his throat seemed to be strangled by an invisible hand, and he was almost out of breath.He hurriedly lowered his head, hiding his red eyes, and lifted the charcoal bag to the center of the room, in front of the blazing charcoal stove.

"Are you new here? It seems that I haven't seen you a few days ago." Yue Chentan's voice was very soft, if you didn't listen carefully, you would easily miss it.

Jia Wukai kept adding charcoal to the charcoal stove: "I was temporarily seconded by the boss, and I was working at Luoshuang Restaurant in front of me."

"That's it." Yue Chentan paused, and said, "I'm afraid I'll trouble you for a few days. I don't know what your name is?"

With a shake of Jia Wukai's hands, a piece of charcoal rolled down into the fire, and was quickly swallowed up by the blazing flames.Now that things had happened, he no longer wanted to make up another name in front of Yue Chentan and report his family background. I don't know if it was because of guilt towards Yue Chentan or for some other reason.

"Guest officer, you can call me Ah Jue." Jia Wuchai made up his mind, turned around, and looked straight at Yue Chentan.

"Ah Qi." The name lingered between Yue Chentan's lips and teeth, and then another round of severe coughing was triggered.

Yue Chentan coughed extremely forbearance, but Jia Wuhai could see the pain he was trying to endure from his clenched hands.He felt heartbroken seeing it, walked straight over, patted Yue Chentan on the back and said: "Guest officer, don't worry about me, just cough it up, feel better."

Yue Chentan glanced at him, seemingly apologetic, covering his mouth with one hand, his whole body shaking violently, as if he wanted to cough up his heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys before giving up.

After another half a cup of tea, the coughing stopped completely.Jia Wujue looked at Yue Chentan, he closed his eyes, his eyelashes trembled slightly, his face was as white as paper, lifeless.

Just when Jia Wuchai wondered if the other party had fallen asleep, Yue Chentan slowly opened his eyes, raised his hand, and pointed to a pack of herbal medicine on the table: "Ah Qi, please go and take this medicine for me. Decoct the medicine."

Jia Wujue had never seen him so weak, he seemed to empathize with him, and thought that the other party might have become like this because of him, and felt pain and pity for a while, not to mention Yue Chentan's initiative, it was The stars in the sky should also be plucked and given to him.

Thinking of this, Jia Wuchao's tone became very attentive: "Guest, besides medicine, do you want some more? Our Luoshuang Building's Shibu Decoction is the most famous, why don't you try it? It's not only delicious, but also nourishes Qi." Blood enrichment is also the best, a hot pot will make you sweat after eating, and it is most beneficial to drive away the cold."

Seeing that Yue Chentan hadn't responded yet, he immediately said: "Or dragon and tiger stew, it's also very good. It's most suitable for eating in winter. It can not only strengthen your strength, but also clear your heart and moisten your lungs. If you eat it, you may It's going to be such a bad cough."

Seeing his enthusiasm, Yue Chentan seemed to care more about this body than himself.There was a sudden warmth in his heart, but he still said calmly on his face: "No need, Ah Qi just needs to decoct this medicine."

Naturally, Jia Wuchao would not force him, everything was based on his preferences, so he picked up the herbs from the table and retreated.In the back kitchen, he was holding a fan and fanning it absently, but his mind was like a kaleidoscope, flashing various images of him and Yue Chentan getting along in the past.

A thought crept into his mind quietly, what if, just if, he confessed his identity to Yue Chentan now, what would happen?He rested his chin, thought about it seriously, and finally found that Yue Chentan didn't seem to be able to do anything to him.

At this moment, if Yue Chentan knew his true identity and scolded him, he probably wouldn't have the strength to scold or beat him, and he would have no strength to beat him.If he insisted on avoiding him, now that he is inconvenient to move, he must not be as convenient as his own legs and feet, and he will be found by him sooner or later.Besides, even if he was scolded, beaten and avoided, it was nothing. If Yue Chentan was willing to be with him as before, then he would be willing too.

Yue Chentan felt that he was not telling the truth and that he was not honest enough, so he decided to break up with him without asking for his own opinion, which was unreasonable at all.Jia Wukai thought for a while silently, and felt that although he had many problems, Yue Chentan was not completely free from problems.

Even family members are far and near, let alone friends?No one wants to expose all their secrets, just like no one wants to be naked in front of others.Even if it is a life-and-death friendship, it is reasonable for the two parties to have reservations, let alone friends who have known each other not long ago?

He can confess part of his identity, but not all the secrets.But he didn't allow himself to lose his friend Yue Chentan, so even if Yue Chentan wanted to be honest, he wasn't honest enough, if he wanted to be real, he wasn't real enough, he would continue to be friends with Yue Chentan.

It is such an inexplicable attachment.

Jia Wukai didn't realize at all that he seemed to be going further and further down the road of rogue.In order to restore the relationship with Yue Chentan, any problem is a piece of cake for him.

Even if it's true.

Thinking of this, Jia Wujue patted his face, this time, without a mask, without makeup and hair, this is his original face, it depends on whether the other party believes it or not.

In the steaming heat, he stood up abruptly, picked up the boiled medicine, stiffened his neck, stiffened his shoulders, and walked upstairs.

"boom."

Unable to control the strength, Jia Wukai put the decocted medicine heavily on the wooden table in front of the bed, and then stepped back stiffly.Yue Chentan looked at his crab-like figure, and paused slightly for the hand holding the medicine.

Seeing that his movements slowed down, Jia Wubai didn't know why he was hesitating, so he said in a rough voice: "Guest officer, please drink the medicine."

Yue Chentan glanced at him, seeing no evil intentions, raised his arm, and poured the whole bowl of thick black concoction into his mouth.Just as he put down the bowl, a candy was handed to him: "Guest officer, this medicine smells bitter, take a candy."

Malt-colored caramel, a round one, stuck on a bamboo stick, I don't know where this person found it.Yue Chentan couldn't refuse, so he took the candy and rubbed the bamboo stick unconsciously with his fingers, but he didn't intend to put it in his mouth.

"Don't guest officials eat?" Jia Wuju asked.

Yue Chentan said lightly: "The medicine is not considered bitter."

"Isn't it bitter?" Jia Wu cheated and stuck out his tongue, not embarrassed to say that he wanted to gag just by smelling it.

"There are things in the world that are a thousand times, ten thousand times more bitter than this medicine." Yue Chentan said softly.After finishing speaking, he looked at Jia Wuhai, "What time is it now?"

"It's just passed the three quarters of the Hai hour." Jia Wu said bullyingly.

"En." Yue Chentan seemed to be very tired, and made a single sound with his nose, and then there was no sound again.

The charcoal fire in the house was very hot, Jia Wujue's face was flushed red and faintly sweating, but Yue Chentan's face was like the finest mutton fat white jade, without a trace of blood, nor a drop of sweat.

Seeing his appearance, Jia Wujue finally made up his mind, gritted his teeth and said, "Ke... Shen Tan."

Hearing the last two words, Yue Chentan suddenly opened his eyes, his originally calm face suddenly became as cold as ice, and there was no trace of warmth in his eyes looking at Jia Wukai.

Jia Wuchai secretly clenched his fists, facing Yue Chentan's frozen eyes and said word by word: "Brother Yue, I am Jia Wuchai. This time, I have no cover, my body and appearance are all my true colors..."

He wanted to continue talking, but Yue Chentan said coldly: "Get out."

Seeing that he didn't want to hear his own explanation, Jia Wujue secretly held his breath in his heart, puffed up his cheeks, folded his arms and said, "I don't."

Yue Chentan took a deep look at him, and was about to speak when his body shook suddenly, and a look of pain appeared on his frozen face.He bent down suddenly, and the cloak covering his shoulders suddenly fell off, revealing his thin undershirt.The posture he tried so hard to maintain finally couldn't hold on in front of the huge pain his body suffered, and his whole body shrank into a ball, trembling violently on the quilt.

Jia Wuhai couldn't bear to see him suffer so much, so he took a few steps forward, unexpectedly, although Yue Chentan was in severe pain, he still resolutely refused his approach.

"Go away." Yue Chentan's dull voice came from the bed, his lips were trembling, and his back molars were clenched tightly to avoid screaming in pain, all these made these two words have a bit more of a gnashing of teeth .

"You became like this because of Yimengwan, didn't you?" Jia Wuchao turned a deaf ear to his warning, and still approached the bed step by step.

At this moment, Yue Chentan's whole body was tense, his body and mind were fighting against the overwhelming pain, and he had no time to give him any more attention.

But to Jia Wuhai, Yue Chentan's answer was no longer important.He saw Yue Chentan's body curled up in a ball, looked at his trembling appearance, silently picked up the shaken cloak, and covered it from behind Yue Chentan.

At the same time, he was also covered.

He was not as tall as Yue Chentan, and hung behind Yue Chentan in the same crouched posture, like a big monkey carrying a little monkey on its back. The scene was sad and funny.Yue Chentan's will was blurred by the cold poison stimulated by Yimeng Pill. There was something like a furnace stuck behind him, and he subconsciously leaned back, only wanting to let the heat source stick to his skin.

Seeing Yue Chentan's body arched backward subconsciously, Jia Wuju guessed that the other party was craving the heat from his body.He stretched his body as much as possible, stretched his long arms, hung them around Yue Chentan's neck, pressed his chest and abdomen tightly behind his back, hooked his feet around Yue Chentan's cold feet, and rubbed them from time to time, wanting to pamper his hands. Feet get a little warm.Thick quilts covered the two of them, Jia Wujuan was so hot that he panicked, and beads of sweat dripped down his forehead.On the other hand, Yue Chentan, this kind of temperature seemed to make him feel a little warm, and the tightly wrinkled brows finally eased a bit.

When the trembling in his body gradually subsided, Jia Wujue stood up and looked at him, only to see that he was breathing steadily and his face was calm, as if he had entered a dream.Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief in his heart, he lay down, pulled up the quilt, and wrapped Yue Chentan up again with his short body.

A night without dreams.
