Low fever

When Ruan Chen rushed to the hospital and found the department room, Mu Xinghai's wound had already been healed, the blood on his hands was wiped clean, and the wound was stitched up.

But it wasn't just that, his face was also bruised and purple, obviously he had been beaten.

Ruan Chen stood in front of him and asked angrily, "What did you do in the middle of the night, and how did you make yourself look like this?"

Mu Xinghai grinned: "Fight."

Are you not ashamed but proud?Ruan Chen felt sorry for him unconsciously, and became even more angry: "Are you still talking about it? Fight? What kind of fight? Are you not afraid of being punished by the school?"

It's rare for him to have the aura of a senior brother.

Ruan Chen was extremely anxious, holding back his anger and having nowhere to vent his anger, and cursed pointedly:

"You are always like this! Are you a lunatic? As soon as you think of it, do it as soon as you think of it, and don't care what you will do in the future! Did you do it on purpose? You just knew that I would be soft-hearted, right? ? Do you have to do this???"

When it came to the back, there was a crying voice that almost collapsed.

Mu Xinghai didn't dare to be a rascal any more, and didn't stand up, just sat down, being shorter so that he could show weakness, he reached out to hold Ruan Chen's hand, and deliberately used the injured hand to make Ruan Chen couldn't bear to slap it away.

Ruan Chen remained motionless, and only said, "Let go, this is outside."

Mu Xinghai didn't let go, and said: "Brother, sit down and talk slowly."

Ruan Chen took a deep breath before sitting down beside him.

"Why did you fight with someone for no reason?"

"I went to the bar to drink, and someone was looking for trouble, and I didn't take the initiative to fight..."

"What about that person?"

"He went to another hospital. Someone called the police, so we went our separate ways."

Knowing that there would be no lawsuits, Ruan Chen was slightly relieved, but still wanted to beat this brat up again.

As a social fear who doesn't like going to bars at all, and is completely insulated from trouble, he can't understand Mu Xinghai's way of life, why is this guy so reckless and reckless?

Ruan Chen said angrily, "Do I still have to praise you for being amazing? Are you really manly?"

Mu Xinghai said in a low voice, "No, no."

Scold him, it's like punching cotton with a fist, you can't use it hard.

You can say that he is rebellious, and you can beat and scold him, and you can say that he is obedient, but you can't see his repentance at all.He also looked like he was secretly delighted that he had successfully tricked him over.

Ruan Chen felt that he was a fool who threw himself into the trap.

Ruan Chen was sullen for a while, and when he turned his head, he saw Mu Xinghai staring at him with burning eyes.He quickly looked away, his heart was pounding, and he was very anxious.There was no follow-up to what happened at night, even if he avoided mentioning it, he was still thinking about what Mu Xinghai said about coming out to his parents.

But he didn't dare to mention it.

Ruan Chen stood up: "Let's go, I'll take you home, young master."

Ruan Chen took the initiative to help Mu Xinghai take medical records, medicines and other sundries, and slowly walked away.

Mu Xinghai was half a step behind, looking at his back.

To be honest, it's not a charming back, with a slightly hunched back and lowered head, always looking so humble and shabby, but why does he just want to kiss the little mole on his neck?

He was vague and didn't tell Ruan Chen the whole truth.

He went to the bar to drink and had a conflict with someone, but he didn't say that the person was Lin Mu, and it was because Lin Mu confronted him with a photo of them kissing.

They left the bright room and walked into the dark without street lights.

Mu Xinghai lowered his voice as if he was afraid of scaring Ruan Chen, and said, "Brother, I really told my parents about our relationship, and they don't object...you, what do you think? ?”

It is said that people who are cold on the outside are hot on the inside, and those who are hot on the outside are cold on the inside. Mu Xinghai thinks that Ruan Chen is cold inside and out, like a big piece of thick ice, which can be seen through at first glance, but it is actually layer by layer. The ice tightly protects the core.

It won't melt even if you pour your fiery heart and blood on it.

He saw Ruan Chen stop, and then stopped, Ruan Chen suddenly said, "...Actually, I had a good time with my adoptive parents."

Mu Xinghai listened quietly.

Ruan Chen said: "They thought I didn't remember things, but I remembered them all. When I first arrived at Ruan's house, my parents treated me very well. My mother knitted me several small sweaters, which were very beautiful. There were pictures of people playing with butterflies on them. My little kitten is the envy of other children in the kindergarten. I will guard the door every day when my father comes back from work, and I will pounce on him as soon as he enters the door. He will pick me up and play, and let me ride on his shoulders to take me Go to kindergarten."

"I understand why they still choose to send me away. At that time, my mother had a younger brother, and my grandma was sick again, and it cost a lot of money. Human hearts are not evenly shaped, one end is light and the other end is heavy, maybe they like me Yes, but I don’t like it enough. They are not vicious people, I said I want to study, and they also paid for me, so the family asked me for money, and I gave money.”

"I know that I am doing well now, and they are also within the moral range, and they are not bad to me."

At this moment, Mu Xinghai felt as if he could see Ruan Chen's soul, broken apart, floating on the water like sawdust.

It reminded him of a sentence from many literary films that he watched with Ruan Chen during this period: Once a heart is broken, it will always be broken forever.

"I know no one in the world is obligated to love another human being."

"But sometimes I still resent, resent why they chose my soul from the void, and let me come into this world."

Ruan Chen turned around, his face was tense, staring at the handsome, embarrassed man in front of him who made him jealous and longing for, the love and hate in his chest were intertwined and twisted into a knot, he said: "Do you think you Tell me your parents agree and I'll jump for joy, thank you? I'm not a woman, what do you want from you. Do you know how I feel? I just feel more jealous, I've always been jealous You. Why is it so easy for you to get everything you want? Even if you are deviant, you can be tolerated by everyone."

"Do you know what would happen if my family found out about us? All the respect I'd built up over the years of being a bullshit collapsed."

"You can turn back at any time, but I can't."

Ruan Chen was nailed to the spot, and Mu Xinghai approached step by step like splitting an invisible thick wall:

"Can't you just try it once? You're going to build your wall over everyone forever? Yes, you do protect yourself from harm, but it also blocks other cares. You say you want a home , you never let people come to you, so who can form a family with you?"

Ruan Chen was stepped on sorely and could no longer refute.

He knew he was cowardly, and he hated his own cowardice more than anyone else.

Mu Xinghai put his palm on his cheek, lowered his head and kissed his cold and trembling lips.

"If you want to hide, it doesn't matter if you continue to hide. I don't ask you to confess to your family. You can save yourself a way out."

"Not for me, but for yourself, be brave once."

Ruan Chen said coldly: "It's been a long time, how could it be possible to hide this?"

Mu Xinghai said firmly: "You can hide it. I won't stay, I will take you away."
