The boss wants me to fall asleep every night

Shen Heqiu stood in front of the iron door, with the tip of his teeth pressed against his lower lip, and hesitantly looked into the door.

When his nails were about to sink into the palm of his hand, a hand reached out from the side, held his hand, and then slowly opened his fingers that were too tightly clenched, and then clasped his hand again.

"Don't be afraid."

Shen Heqiu turned his head, and Yi Cheng stood beside him, smiling at him.

He looked at those tender eyes filled with light, and the uneasiness in his heart subsided, followed by a little bit of sense of stability.

"Do you want to go in?" Yi Sheng glanced at the nursing home and asked gently.

Shen Heqiu took a breath: "Yes."

Yi Sheng let go, lowered the peaked caps Shen and Qiu were wearing, and then took out a mask.

"Wear it and you won't be recognized."

Shen and Qiu were about to reach out to pick it up, but Yi Cheng's hand holding the mask turned slightly, and missed his outstretched hand.

Then put the mask on for him.

As the warm fingertips passed over the slightly cool pinnae, Shen Heqiu's ears moved slightly, as if they had been scalded by the contrasting heat, and the roots of their ears began to heat up.

"Okay." Yi Sheng put down his hands.

Shen Heqiu originally had a small face, but now covered by the mask and the brim of the hat, almost only revealing a pair of glass-like amber eyes.

Yi Cheng stared at the man for a while, and felt that even with only one pair of eyes, his little friend looked too beautiful to be ostentatious.

But I can't wear sunglasses anymore. It's normal to wear masks and hats in hospitals, but sunglasses are a bit exaggerated.

Shen Heqiu didn't know what Yi Cheng was thinking, he rubbed his hot ears, and timidly said, "Thank you, thank you."

Yi Cheng put his palm on the top of Shen Heqiu's hat, smiled and said nothing.

Before they came to the nursing home, they had already made an appointment with the staff of the nursing home in advance.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw the other party standing not far away, looking over hesitantly, and then came over and asked, "Excuse me...is this Mr. Shen Heqiu?"

Shen Heqiu lowered the brim of his hat, and answered uncomfortably in a low voice: "...Yes."

They were greeted by a middle-aged nurse who looked to be in her 30s, with a friendly smile: "Hello, Mr. Shen."

"Because the hospital has strict control over visitors, I have to trouble you to register for visitors at the front desk. And this is yours...?" She looked at Yi Sheng.

Before Shen Heqiu could make a sound, he heard Yi Cheng beside him saying in a low voice, "Family."

The middle-aged nurse smiled after hearing the words: "Okay. Please register together."

After registering at the front desk, they followed the nurse to the payment office of the nursing home to pay the expenses related to Lin Qiuxia's hospitalization.

After paying the money, Shen Heqiu breathed a sigh of relief.

He didn't want to stay in the hospital any longer, so he turned around and was about to leave when he suddenly saw a middle-aged nurse walking towards him, followed by another young nurse.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Shen...your mother said she wanted to see you."

The middle-aged nurse glanced at the young nurse beside her, who nodded to her.

"Because of the patient's condition, do you think it's convenient for you to see her?"

Yi Sheng turned to look at Shen and Qiu.

But the lowered peaked cap blocked his view, and he couldn't see the emotion in those amber eyes clearly.

Only Shen Heqiu said softly:

"it is good."

The conditions of the wards in the nursing home are not bad, the light is relatively sufficient, and it doesn't make people feel too oppressed.

Even more so after pulling the curtains all the way up.

Lin Qiuxia sat on the bed and looked out of the window. The afternoon sun shone in through the window, spreading the golden color all over the ground, but it only stopped by her bed.

There are a few books beside her bed, maybe she has been reading recently.

"Is Qiuqiu here?" Lin Qiuxia heard the sound of the door being pushed open, and turned her head to look, with a peaceful and soft smile on her face.

Shen Heqiu stood at the door, looking into the ward.

He almost didn't recognize Lin Qiuxia's face.

When Shen Heqiu was a child, he only lived with Lin Qiuxia until he was six or seven years old, and then he was taken away by Shen Shiqing to the Shen family. Since then, he has never seen Lin Qiuxia again, only occasionally receiving calls from her.

But what Lin Qiuxia said on the phone, like her mental state, had ups and downs.

Sometimes she would suddenly start scolding him, scolding him for going off to sing something, not being a good boy like everyone else.

She called him mentally ill, and said she regretted giving birth to him. Without him, Shen Shiqing would not have left her.

Sometimes she would suddenly regain her senses, care about his current life tenderly, and talk about his childhood with a smile.

Lin Qiuxia's appearance has changed a lot.

Her long hair had been cut short, and the once black and shiny hair had become dull and mixed with white hair.

There are wrinkles on her beautiful face, and those eyes, which are very similar to Shen Heqiu, are no longer bright amber, but have become cloudy and old.

Shen Heqiu suddenly realized that Lin Qiuxia was getting old.

"Qiuqiu? Why are you standing at the door?" Lin Qiuxia waved her hand and smiled happily, "Come in and let mom see you."

Shen and Qiu took one step slowly, then a second step, and finally came to her bedside.

"My Qiuqiu has grown so big."

"Mom really misses you. She wonders if you are eating well, sleeping well, whether you are happy at school, whether you will be bullied by others, and want to see what my Qiuqiu will look like when she grows up... ..."

"I wonder if I didn't wash strawberries for Qiuqiu, would you know that strawberries should be washed with water before eating..."

Lin Qiuxia said a lot in one breath, she stretched out her hand as if to touch Shen Heqiu.

But Shen Heqiu took a step back in response, avoiding her touch.

The hand stretched out to him was like a poisonous snake spit out a snake letter.

It would hit him with a wine bottle, pull his hair and push him into the kitchen sink, and use its sharp nails to pinch his body...

Even though he was in a hospital that smelled of disinfectant water, Shen Heqiu's nose seemed to be filled with the strong smell of low-quality alcohol, which made him feel nauseous.

In a trance, he seemed to have returned to that small room with air leakage.

There was a noise in his head like an alarm, and his body also started to ache, so painful that he had to clenched the soft flesh in his mouth, and tasted a bit of blood.

Even though Lin Qiuxia's appearance had changed, he was still scared, so scared that his teeth chattered.

Yi Cheng noticed something was wrong with Shen Heqiu, stepped forward a few steps, grabbed his wrist, turned him around, and gently pulled him into his arms.

"It's okay, it's okay, don't be afraid." He stroked Shen Heqiu's black hair reassuringly.

Lin Qiuxia watched as Yi Cheng pulled Shen and Qiu behind him who were still trembling, blocking them tightly, and the smile on her face disappeared instantly.

She looked at Yi Sheng with gloomy eyes, full of hostility: "Who are you?"

Before Yi Sheng could answer, Lin Qiuxia suddenly raised her voice: "It's you, right! It's you who brought Qiuqiu down!"

"If you didn't bring him down..."

Lin Qiuxia's eyes turned suddenly, and she stared at Yi Sheng's back: "If you weren't bad, how could I be like this!"

"You're all gone, you're all gone from me..."

She frantically tore at the quilt on her body, and threw all the books on the bedside towards Yi Cheng and Shen Heqiu.

The book hit the ground heavily, the sound made Shen Heqiu tremble.

Yi Sheng pulled the person in time and dodged to the side.

The door of the ward was quickly opened, and the medical staff swarmed in, controlled Lin Qiuxia, who was out of control, and tied her to the bed with a restraint belt.

"The patient is agitated, is there a sedative?"

"Yes, inject it now."

"Visiting relatives should leave the ward first, so as not to irritate the patient or be hurt by her."

Yi Sheng held Shen Heqiu's hand: "Okay, let's go out now."

He took Shen and Qiu out of the ward.

The medical staff came and went in the corridor, and the hurried footsteps mixed with the occasional howls and mutterings of the patients made it a little creepy.

Yi Cheng was afraid that Shen and Qiu would feel uncomfortable if they continued to stay here, so he was about to lead them out.

But it didn't pull Shen Heqiu.

"Chirp?"

Shen and Qiu stood in place without moving.

He watched the movement in the ward through the viewing glass.

Lin Qiuxia had already been tied up with a restraint belt and was struggling crazily on the bed. The medical staff surrounded her bed, almost blocking most of her body.

Then, the sedative should have taken effect, and she gradually began to calm down. Finally, she opened her mouth and obediently swallowed the medicine given to her by the nurse next to her.

Shen Heqiu held Yi Sheng's hand tightly, he pursed his lips, turned his head, his voice came through the mask, muffled: "... let's go."

The two walked out of the nursing home in silence and returned to the car.

Yi Sheng drove his own car today without a driver.

But he didn't sit in the driver's seat, but followed behind Shen Heqiu and got into the back seat of the car together.

"Did you get scared just now?" Yi Sheng rubbed the back of Shen Heqiu's head with a gentle tone.

The car was a bit stuffy, so he helped Shen Heqiu take off their masks, and then lifted their peaked caps.

The hair on Shen Heqiu's forehead was already wet with cold sweat.

He shook his head first, then his eyes suddenly fell on the back of Yi Sheng's hand.

"Mr. Yi, your hand, your hand is injured!"

Yi Sheng raised his hand and glanced at the back of his hand that was hit by the book Lin Qiuxia threw over just now, it was already swollen.

Shen Heqiu held Yi Sheng's hand helplessly, his eyes were red with anxiety: "Does it hurt? How, how did you get it..."

He paused for a moment, then remembered: "Isn't it, I was just hit by a book—"

"Jiujiu." Yi Sheng interrupted Shen Heqiu and answered his last question: "It's okay, it doesn't hurt."

With his other hand, he gently pressed Shen Heqiu's reddened eye corners, caressing them soothingly.

If he didn't block the book that was thrown at him, the one who got hit would be a child.

How can it not hurt?

Shen Heqiu held Yi Sheng's hand carefully, their chests were so painful that they tightened, and they didn't even care about the aftertaste of fear and sadness just now.

He lowered his head, thinking of something, and gently blew on the back of Yi Sheng's swollen hand.

Yi Cheng felt a bit of warm wind blowing on the back of his hand, and he looked down at the kid who was blowing on the back of his hand, the back of his hand all the way to the fingertips felt a little numb, as if a tiny electric current was flowing through the veins.

"Does it still hurt?" Shen Heqiu asked timidly.

Mr. Yi did the same thing when he scratched his hand last time, and he didn't feel much pain at that time.

This time, it should be useful, right?

Yi Cheng's hand on Shen Heqiu's eye ends hadn't been relaxed yet, but at this moment he couldn't help but intensify a little bit, rubbing the end of his eyes to make them redder.

"Well, it doesn't hurt anymore."

The injury on the hand is not uncomfortable, but it is a little itchy from being blown.
