stepping into the night

Ruan Chu, who was originally very tired, was not so sleepy after being carried for a while by Lin Jiang, probably because he himself did not expect that one day the person he had a crush on would appear when he was the most tired, and would be like this Walking with his back on his back, such accidents and joy cheered up his spirits.

A few minutes later, Ruan Chu was embarrassed to lean on Lin Jiang's back, cleared his throat and discussed with Lin Jiang: "Senior, I'll go down by myself, my house is not far from here, you carried me for so long ...very tiring."

"You're very light." Lin Jiang turned her head slightly towards Ruan Chu's direction, obviously she didn't intend to let him go, and she seemed to know what Ruan Chu was thinking. explain.

"When you got off work at the tutoring institution today, you looked very bad. I was not at ease. I remembered that you mentioned that you had a part-time job here during the summer vacation when I was working and chatting at the school milk tea shop, so I came here with the idea of ​​giving it a try. It's gone." Lin Jiang walked with Ruan Chu on her back for more than ten minutes without panting, and the hands on his legs were still steady, "My house is not far from where yours lives, so I'm on the way, so you don't have to feel sorry."

But no matter how light he is, he is still a big boy of 1.8 meters. Ruan Chu himself is self-aware. He lay on Lin Jiang's back and remained silent for a long while, but still blushed and insisted on coming down. Lin Jiang followed him.

The two chatted on the road for a while, Ruan Chu didn't ask Lin Jiang why he was so worried about coming to find him, Lin Jiang didn't explain, just said good night to each other at the fork in the road as usual, just like when he was in school.

"Don't have breakfast tomorrow morning, let's meet at the bus station here at eight o'clock, and pick up the number half an hour in advance." Lin Jiang told him a few more words, and watched Ruan Chu make an appointment before turning to her home direction.

They walked in their respective directions alone in the deep night, but the two hearts that were already ready to move seemed to be getting closer silently.

When Ruan Chu returned home, he also saw the inquiry message sent by Lin Jiang, and they reported the information that they had arrived home safely before saying goodnight to each other again.

This night, even the pain in the stomach seemed to be relieved a lot because of the buoyant mood. Ruan Chu slept so deeply that he almost didn't hear his alarm ringing in the morning.When he was washing up, he took a special look in the mirror to make sure that he didn't look inappropriate, as if he was not accompanied by Lin Jiang to the hospital to see a doctor, but was dating Lin Jiang.

But "dating" is a word that belongs only to sweet couples, Ruan Chu didn't dare to have too much extravagant expectations, what he got now has far exceeded his original expectations.

Ruan Chu didn't mention the matter of going to the hospital to see a doctor. He didn't want his hard-working parents to worry about his own affairs. He is already an adult who should take on family responsibilities. become a worry for parents.

As soon as Ruan Chu arrived at the station that the two had agreed on last night, he saw Lin Jiang sitting on the bench next to the stop sign, with a smile on his lips unconsciously, and walked towards Lin Jiang at a faster pace: "Senior."

"Morning." Lin Jiang put away her phone, turned her head to look at Ruan Chu with a smile, got up and gave him her seat.

"Oh, no, no, no!" Ruan Chuhong's ears blushed, and she quickly waved her hand to refuse.

Lin Jiang smiled lightly, but didn't insist, so she stood beside Ruan Chu and waited for the bus with him.

The sky that has just snowed is exceptionally clear, and the road surface is also very clean after the sanitation workers have worked hard. Strangers waiting at the station will involuntarily move closer to each other to resist the cold wind blowing in the wide gap.

The two standing side by side among them calmly drew closer to each other, so close that they could feel each other's touch through the thick cotton clothes.

Even though it will be the New Year's Eve soon, the hospital is still crowded as always.After Lin Jiang accompanied Ruan Chu to take the number, she waited almost an hour in the waiting area outside before her turn came.

"Do you need me to go in with you?" Lin Jiang asked Ruan Chu's opinion seriously.

Ruan Chu didn't like to come to the hospital, but in his heart he really hoped that Lin Jiang could stay by his side all the time, but he hesitated for a while, then shook his head, and smiled at Lin Jiang: "No, it should be fine .”

"Okay," Lin Jiang nodded, "I'll just sit here and wait for you."

"En." Ruan Chu nodded, and went into the consultation room with his registration form.

The inspection process was not too long. When Lin Jiang saw Ruan Chu coming out, she immediately stood up and walked towards him, asking about the situation in a low voice.

"The doctor said," Ruan Chu pursed his lips, "It is recommended to have a gastroscopy."

Lin Jiang took the outpatient medical records from him, and read the contents verbatim.

"Chief complaint: Abdominal pain at night without radiation, relieved after eating

Diagnosis: Duodenitis"

Lin Jiang handed the medical records back to Ruan Chu, but didn't say anything more, and just accompanied Ruan Chu to ask at the service desk for an electrocardiogram and make an appointment for a gastroscopy with the electrocardiogram.

But the price of a gastroscopy is not a small amount for Ruan Chu, but compared with nearly 200 for a painless gastroscopy, the more than [-] of a gastroscopy without anesthesia seems to be within the acceptable range.

"Little friend, gastroscopy is very uncomfortable," an aunt next to me who was also making an appointment persuaded, "Your generation is so delicate, it's better to do it without pain."

"It's okay, I'm not afraid of pain." Ruan Chu blinked, smiled politely and thanked her.

Lin Jiang didn't persuade, but just accompanied Ruan Chu silently, doing things for Ruan Chu that he didn't notice much.

——Their families are all about the same.Lin Jiang didn't want to see Ruan Chu feeling uncomfortable or in pain, but if it were him, he would only choose the one without anesthesia.

"Let's go eat breakfast." After leaving the hospital, Lin Jiang took Ruan Chu to the direction of a nearby breakfast stand, "I checked before going to bed yesterday, and they said that there is a breakfast near the hospital that tastes good and is more suitable for raising food." Stomach."

"Okay." Ruan Chu put the medical records in his schoolbag, and walked out beside Lin Jiang.

——Every time he came to the hospital in the past, he would have an unknown fear and anxiety, but this time with Lin Jiang's silent company, it was like a reassurance, giving Ruan Chu unlimited confidence.

The cost of one inspection was already Ruan Chu's part-time salary for several days during the winter vacation. Ruan Chu was a little distressed, and because Lin Jiang paid more attention to telling him to eat three meals a day on time than before when he was in school, he obediently adjusted himself No matter how busy you are when you go to Cyclamen in the afternoon, remember to eat something at home in advance to fill your stomach before rushing over.

The puppet made for Lin Jiang has already drawn a sketch. Ruan Chu asked his father to ask for the remaining wood in the factory. Every morning, he will use a fixed time to carve a part. Lin Jiang and the roommates have done a good job.

On New Year's Eve, Ruan Chu's mother insisted on going to work in the store. Ruan Chu's father's factory had a holiday according to the regulations, but he still went to pick up carpentry work for private clients on this day. The family only had time in the early morning. Then I rushed back home in a hurry, set up the induction cooker before the bell rang, and cooked a pot of mutton soup pot that my mother had prepared a few days in advance.

Although the family is not rich, their parents still give Ruan Chu and Ruan Yun lucky money. The family huddled on the sofa to watch the last few shows and countdown of the Spring Festival Gala, and wished each other a happy New Year with bright smiles when the fireworks bloomed outside the window.

At the same time, Ruan Chu also sent the New Year greetings that had been typed in the dialog box in advance to all friends and class groups. Only the one to Lin Jiang was sent by him at zero o'clock.

This is selfish.

With the same selfishness, Lin Jiang also sent a message to Ruan Chu at the same time.

[Lin]: Happy New Year, Ruan Ruan.

[Chu Ji]: Senior, Happy New Year!

The 611 dormitory group immediately exploded into a commotion. Ye Xingzhi and Zhou Yue's family got together to play cards, and they had to accompany them. Zhao Tong was in his hometown in the countryside, jumping up and down in the yard outside looking for a cell phone signal. Amidst the din of falling guns and fireworks, he sent voice blessings to everyone in 611.

Although Lin Ran is on holiday according to the statutory holidays, she has to go back to her parents' house, but as a single mother, she will bring up Lin Jiang alone, so she will naturally receive all kinds of comments from the villagers. She doesn't want Lin Jiang to listen to it. Hearing those words, he went back to his hometown alone, leaving Lin Jiang alone in this empty city.

But this is already the norm for Lin Jiang, and he has long been used to it.

But this is the first year that he met Ruan Chu and fell in love with Ruan Chu, and he was not satisfied with just chatting with Ruan Chu through the cold electronic device.

Ruan Chu's neighborhood is only 15 minutes away from home.

The first person he sees in the new year, he hopes to be Ruan Chu.

But Ruan Chu and his family were reuniting, and Lin Jiang couldn't persuade himself to call Ruan Chu out, even though he knew that Ruan Chu would definitely come out because of his own news, and he couldn't be so selfish.

Lin Jiang only confirmed that Ruan Chu's affection for her was deeper than that between ordinary seniors and juniors during the more than half a month of getting along, but she failed to confirm that Ruan Chu at that time was also in this old and new year. When it is particularly exciting, I have the same mood as myself.

The family washed up and went back to the room after midnight, and the lights were turned off in the small apartment with four people. Ruan Chu leaned on the window sill and watched the fireworks outside, but at this moment he really wanted to see Lin Jiang.

——It would be great if I could stay with Lin Jiang and watch the fireworks at the first moment of entering the new year.

Those thoughts suppressed in his heart began to spread again, occupying Ruan Chu's thoughts and controlling his actions when he was in a trance.

Ruan Chu came back to his senses, and hurriedly withdrew the message he had just sent, "I heard that the fireworks in the square outside are very beautiful, do you want to come together, senior?"

But he didn't expect Lin Jiang to see the news that he had withdrawn in seconds, and he didn't expect that immediately after the withdrawal message was a word from Lin Jiang.

"it is good."
