Sorry, it's a different price to be a stand-in

The sudden impact caused the two of them to fall heavily to the ground, and the two doors were slapped by the wind as if they were weightless, making a loud noise.

Lin Zhinan thought that his head would hit the steps, but he subconsciously closed his eyes, but his head was firmly protected by something, and a painful muffled sound came from his ear.

Opening his eyes, Lin Zhinan touched the back of his head, only to find that he was protected by a hand.

Lin Zhinan couldn't see the man's appearance clearly in the dark, but he could smell a familiar smell.

The man's skirt was close to Lin Zhinan's face, embracing each other tightly in this posture. Lin Zhinan remembered that it was several years ago when the two were framed by Lin Wei's men and almost died in the belly of a fish.

Today is different from the past, it is not the dangerous situation of the past, and the mood of life and death is no longer there.

"...Thank you." Lin Zhinan let go of the man first, trying to break free from his embrace.

Through the darkness, Lu Yunqi boldly looked at Lin Zhinan's face, moved his lips, but felt that he had no reason to continue hugging him, so he let go resentfully.

The two separated and sat on the ground, with a distance of almost a punch between them.

It was not light when he hit the steps just now, Lu Yunqi clearly heard the sound of the bones crashing, he touched the injured part, thankfully it wasn't swollen, so he shook his hands and prepared to get up.

Darkness is the best protective color.

Lu Yunqi didn't know, Lin Zhinan kept tilting his head to watch Lu Yunqi's movements, knowing that he was hurt by the bump, so he gritted his teeth and refused to speak.

Lu Yunqi stood up, turned around, closed the door, and then turned to Lin Zhinan's direction: "The thunderstorm will not pass for a while, let's wait here first."

Lin Zhinan let out a "hmm" and stopped talking.

"How are you? Are you... injured?" After a long silence, Lu Yunqi suddenly asked.

Lin Zhinan shook his head, realizing that Lu Yunqi might not be able to see his movements, and said, "I'm fine."

Thinking that Lu Yunqi had protected him, Lin Zhinan felt that it would not be good to be rude, so he asked Lu Yunqi about his injuries.

Lu Yunqi sighed inaudibly, "It's okay, it's just a minor injury."

The injury on his hand was indeed a minor matter, what made him even more unbearable was the pain in his right ankle and wrist bone.

He pretended to walk towards Lin Zhinan with normal steps, the darkness well concealed his figure, making his movements look very normal.

Finally sitting next to Lin Zhinan, seeing that he didn't notice anything strange about him, Lu Yunqi heaved a sigh of relief, but at the same time felt a little lost.

It was still windy and windy outside, and the howling wind shook the whole bathroom.

Lu Yunqi was a little puzzled when he smelled the smell of the bathroom. Even he rarely came to this place. Why did Lin Zhinan know about it?

But the most important thing right now is not to question, Lu Yunqi doesn't want to make the relationship between the two of them worse.

He stretched out his hand to press the painful right leg, and changed a relaxed tone, "Lin...Xiaoxu, are you cold?"

Perhaps his tone was too deliberate, Lin Zhinan didn't appreciate it, and turned his head away instead.

Lu Yunqi thought it was Lin Zhinan's tacit consent that he could approach, he was about to get up and move towards Lin Zhinan, but he heard Lin Zhinan say slowly: "I'm not cold, don't come here."

Lu Yunqi's body froze in a weird half-up state, with his back bent, and his demeanor like an old man in his 80s or [-]s.

Lin Zhinan gave Lu Yunqi a strange look, and subconsciously went in the opposite direction.

"I..." After a long silence, Lin Zhinan changed the subject and spoke again, "Are you okay with your injuries?"

Lu Yunqi drooped his head, and said in a muffled voice, "Mmm...it hurts a bit."

It's an old wound that hurts a bit.

And it hurts every rainy day.

Lin Zhinan didn't know about this, Lu Yunqi thought, how could a person like Lin Zhinan who has a strong observation ability fail to see his own abnormality, it should just be that he deliberately ignored it.

Thinking of this, Lu Yunqi didn't intend to reveal his scars to Lin Zhinan, so he pretended to smile relaxedly, "I'm really fine."

Emphasizing it many times is just trying to cover up, Lin Zhinan pursed his lips, not going to continue asking, and was going to wait for the thunderstorm to pass before treating Lu Yunqi's wound.

The two of them just sat quietly like this, the storm outside seemed to make the bathroom even quieter.

Lin Zhinan sat on the side close to the window, and the thunder light reflected his side face from time to time, Lu Yunqi took the opportunity to take a full look.

Just when Lu Yunqi was about to open his mouth to find something to talk about, a thunderbolt fell without warning, there was a loud noise outside the window, and then the flames burned to the sky, and with the crackling sound, the thick tree trunk fell straight towards Lin Zhinan down.

"Lin Zhinan—"

Lu Yunqi didn't care about the pain in his leg, he flew over and protected him firmly.

Burning tree trunks kept falling from above, Lu Yunqi clenched his teeth and hugged Lin Zhinan, enduring the pain and crawling out from under the stone bricks and steel bars.

The wall finally couldn't support the fallen tree trunk and collapsed.

The two were thrown far away due to inertia, and Lu Yunqi's back hit the marble slab of the washstand. With the sound of the marble slab breaking, he felt hot liquid flowing down his head.

Rainwater poured in along with the dilapidated walls, and a layer of water immediately accumulated in the bathroom.

It took Lin Zhinan a long time to realize what had happened. He smelled the smell of blood in the air. Regardless of the muddy water and gravel on his face, he took out his phone that was soaked in water and turned on the flashlight.

Lu Yunqi's face was covered with blood, his eyes were closed, obviously not sober.

"Lu Yunqi! Lu Yunqi? Wake up!" Lin Zhinan laid Lu Yunqi's body flat, and patted his face with the light.

Lu Yunqi frowned, breathing heavily, and the blood seemed to flow from his head more and more, Lin Zhinan panicked, and dialed the emergency number of the hospital with trembling fingers.

While waiting for the ambulance to arrive, Lin Zhinan heard Lu Yunqi whispering something in a low voice.

He leaned down, put his ear close to Lu Yunqi, and only vaguely heard the word "Xiao Xu".

Lin Zhinan clenched his lips, wiped the rain mixed with tears from his face, and said repeatedly, "I'm here, I'm here..."

Because of the bad weather, the ambulance arrived at Lu's house 5 minutes later, and after a simple bandage, he was sent to the hospital.

Lin Zhinan had been waiting outside the emergency room. The passing nurse saw that he was wet and kindly handed him a blanket.

A doctor came out of the emergency room, Lin Zhinan rushed to meet him, grabbed the doctor and asked about Lu Yunqi's situation.

The doctor pushed the glasses: "The patient had a mild concussion, several fractures in his left hand, and a scratch of nearly [-] centimeters on his right leg, which should be caused by steel bars. We have cleaned and stitched up the wound."

How can there be so many injuries?Lin Zhinan suddenly felt fear in his heart.

The doctor saw his worry and patted him on the shoulder, "It's just that there are more injuries, but there are no major problems. You can recover after a good rest. You don't have to be afraid."

Lin Zhinan nodded, and followed the doctor downstairs to pay the hospitalization fee.

Lu Yunqi was placed in a single ordinary ward, Lin Zhinan's eyes secretly turned red when he saw the nurse pushing Lu Yunqi who was on the bottle.

Lu Yunqi was young, strong and in good health, so he woke up slowly at noon the next day.

The first thing he saw was the nurse who was examining him, and when he didn't see the person he wanted to see, he quietly closed his eyes again.

When he opened his eyes again, Lin Zhinan was already sitting beside him, looking at something with his mobile phone.

Lin Zhinan turned his head and saw Lu Yunqi "peeking" at him with wide eyes, so he put down his phone and turned around.

"Are you awake?" Lin Zhinan casually took the water glass on the table, dipped a cotton swab in some water, and tapped on Lu Yunqi's lips.

Lu Yunqi wasn't embarrassed at all, instead he lay obediently, waiting for Lin Zhinan's service.

Looking at Lu Yunqi's bandaged hands, Lin Zhinan pursed his lips, forcing himself to restrain the urge to pour water into Lu Yunqi's mouth.

After feeding the water, Lin Zhinan pointed to Lu Yunqi's suspended leg, "Does it hurt?"

Lu Yunqi thought that these were nothing compared to the injuries he suffered back then, but he still nodded, secretly thinking that Lin Zhinan would comfort him.

Lin Zhinan put down the water glass, his eyes fell on the stitched wound, "Just bear the pain, the anesthetic has not passed yet, it will hurt more later."

Lu Yunqi:? ? ?

Afraid that Lu Yunqi would be bored, Lin Zhinan brought him a laptop and tablet from home.

"Look at what else you need, I'll get it for you." Lin Zhinan put the things within reach of Lu Yunqi, and stood at the end of the bed.

Seeing Lin Zhinan leaving in such a hurry, Lu Yunqi felt a little wronged.

"There's nothing else you need. If you're busy, go first." Lu Yunqi lowered his head, brushing the screen of the tablet unconsciously with his fingers, without reading a single word.

After a long while, Lu Yunqi didn't hear the footsteps leaving, looked up, Lin Zhinan sat down on the opposite table, in front of him was a stack of documents and his worn-out laptop.

Seeing that Lin Zhinan would not leave, Lu Yunqi didn't ask any further questions, and the two of them passed the afternoon quietly like this.

When eating in the evening, Lu Yunqi said that his hands hurt and he couldn't hold chopsticks, so Lin Zhinan had to feed him dinner spoon by spoon.

Seeing Lu Yunqi's satisfaction with eating, Lin Zhinan's eyes fell on his right wrist unconsciously.

The doctor said that Lu Yunqi's right arm wrist and ankle had old injuries, and there were signs of fracture and reconnection, but Lin Zhinan knew nothing about these injuries.

He couldn't help guessing what Lu Yunqi had experienced in the past few years, but when he actually faced Lu Yunqi, Lin Zhinan couldn't ask.

He was afraid that the answer he got would be related to himself.

He was afraid that the temporarily eased relationship between the two of them would collapse again because of what happened back then.

When Lu Yunqi was in a coma, Lin Zhinan asked the doctor to examine his limbs. When he saw the photos of Lu Yunqi's wrist and ankle, Lin Zhinan couldn't help but tremble.

——The doctor said that almost all of Lu Yunqi's limbs had major or minor injuries, and the bone in his right wrist was probably broken by life.
