frontal rain

Jiang Chi thought that Yu Duo fell asleep early, but he didn't.

Working on the construction site is physically exhausting. On weekdays, Yu Duo almost falls asleep as soon as he touches the pillow, so there is no chance of insomnia.

But tonight he couldn't sleep.In the darkness, various sounds rang in his ears in turn—the sound of the rain outside the window, the noise of the drunk downstairs, the breathing of another person beside him, and the sound of the stars chattering their mouths from time to time.

Yu Duo closed his eyes, thinking a little funny, what kind of good food did this little girl eat in her dream.

Such sleepless nights are a bit rare for Yu Duo, and of course it's not because of the unfamiliar environment, or because it's past the sleeping point, and it's not because Jiang Chiyu is sleeping beside him.

It was because his right leg was so sore right now.

The soreness is hard to describe exactly what it feels like, nor where exactly.It is like a cold little snake, along the blood vessels, it is very unbearable.

This is Yu Duo's old problem. Ever since his right leg was broken by his stepfather a few years ago, there have been faint signs of this when it rains.In the past few months, this leg was injured again, and coupled with the whole night of soaking in water tonight, the attack became even more violent.

I have to go to work tomorrow, so I can't sleep all night.Yu Duo turned over and buried most of his face in the quilt, trying to fall asleep as soon as possible.

Yu Duo's body was very tired, but his head didn't feel sleepy at all.Just as his consciousness was jumping back and forth between sobriety and confusion, there was a rustling sound beside him.

Jiang Chiyu flipped the quilt and sat up, then got up and walked out, probably going to the bathroom.

Yu Duo was too lazy to do anything, closed his eyes and remained motionless, but Jiang Chiyu's movements fell into his ears without missing a beat.

It turned out that Jiang Chiyu didn't go to the toilet, but walked into Lin Shengnan's kitchen familiarly, not knowing what he was messing around with.

About 5 minutes later, Jiang Chiyu came back.He went back to Yu Duo and sat down, instead of lying down immediately, he lifted the quilt and stuffed a round thing into Yu Duo's bed.

A warm little bottle rolled to Yu Duo's legs, and Yu Duo's tense nerves relaxed, and he opened his eyes.

At this time, Jiang Chiyu's voice also sounded beside him: "Just say if you feel uncomfortable, and don't force yourself if you can't sleep."

It turned out that what Jiang Chiyu stuffed into the bed was a mineral water bottle filled with hot water.

"How do you know?" Yu Duo turned around, put the hot bottle against his calf, sat up, and leaned against the bed with Jiang Chiyu.

"The whole night was like pancakes, and the dead were woken up by you." Jiang Chiyu said with some disgust.In fact, he lied, since he lay beside Yu Duo, he hasn't fallen asleep for a second.

"That's not what I'm talking about." Yu Duo looked at Jiang Chiyu, patted his leg under the quilt, and asked, "How do you know that my calf is uncomfortable?"

"I discovered it when it rained last time." Jiang Chiyu glanced at Yu Duo lightly, and asked, "Rheumatism?"

"How is it possible, I'm still so young." Lin Shengnan and Xing Xing on the bed were already asleep, Yu Duo moved his body, found a comfortable angle beside the bed, lowered his voice, and said in a breathy voice: "Remember I told you that my leg was broken by someone."

With warm breath falling on his face, Jiang Chiyu nodded absently.

"Later, I was hit with a stick again, and it became like this." Yu Duo shrugged, and said, "It's usually not a big problem, but when it rains, the chain will fall off."

Although Yu Duo acted nonchalantly, Jiang Chiyu still remembered clearly how he got that stick on his leg.At that time, Li Daneng slandered him for stealing, and when Yu Duo was catching the thief with him, he was whipped on the calf with a steel pipe.

Jiang Chiyu couldn't say such beautiful words.He approached Yu Duo silently, stretched out his hands to grab his legs, and hugged the quilt and legs together with the mineral water filled with hot water in his arms.

"Be careful and don't move around." Jiang Chiyu leaned against the bed, sat up with his legs bent, and warmed Yu Duo's calf between his chest and arms: "It will be fine in a while."

Yu Duo was taken aback, his first reaction was to refuse, but he glanced at Jiang Chiyu's expression, and followed him.

The wind and rain were blowing outside the window, and the sound of cars running over puddles sounded from time to time on the main road outside. The two cuddled up to each other at night like this, and they felt a little dependent on each other.

Because of this movement, Yu Duo was forced to turn sideways. He leaned against the edge of the bed, looking down at Jiang Chiyu, thinking that this might not be an illusion.

"How do you feel?" After a while, Jiang Chiyu patted Yu Duo's leg lightly and asked.

Yu Duo came back to his senses and joked, "Did my conscience find out today? Why are you so filial?"

Jiang Chiyu laughed, let go of his hand slightly, and said: "I advise you not to be too complacent, it's like this at such a young age, and you will suffer when you get old."

The star on the bed was already snoring, and the two people sitting on the ground communicated at a volume that only each other could hear, and at this moment they seemed extremely intimate.

I don't know if it's because of the young man's anger or psychological effects, but Yu Duo's feet gradually warmed up, and the inexplicable soreness really began to subside.

"Jiang Chiyu." Yu Duo called Jiang Chiyu, originally wanting him to go to bed quickly, but when the words came to his lips, they suddenly changed to: "Do you want to go to college?"

"Why did you ask this all of a sudden." Jiang Chiyu didn't take Yu Duo's question seriously, just pretending that he couldn't sleep and chatted with him.

"I met Lao Zhou some time ago, and he mentioned your matter." Yu Duo paused, and then said: "I saw your textbook the day I moved to the dormitory."

In fact, it is more than that. Yu Duo knows that Jiang Chiyu lights a lamp and boils oil every night, and he is studying high school courses by himself.And the last time he was photographed wandering around the warehouse by surveillance, he was almost regarded as a thief, and he probably found a clean place nearby to study.

Although Jiang Chiyu never mentioned it, Yu Duo knew that he still had a college dream in his heart.

Jiang Chiyu reads and writes questions on top of Yu Duo's head every night. He guesses that Yu Duo already knows what he is doing, but he doesn't say anything if Yu Duo doesn't ask.

"It's not that easy to go to university." Jiang Chiyu obviously thought about this issue: "Let's not say that I have been out of school for two years. Even if I am admitted to university, the tuition and living expenses in the future will be a problem."

Yu Duo ignored Jiang Chiyu's concerns, but looked at him intently, and said, "You just need to tell me whether you want to or don't want to."

Watched by Yu Duo's dark eyes, Jiang Chiyu seemed to be bewitched, and he couldn't help expressing his truest thoughts.

"Think." Jiang Chiyu said.

Yu Duo laughed: "That's fine."

"Whatever?" Jiang Chiyu saw Yu Duo's expression, and knew what he had decided on.He looked at Yu Duo vigilantly, and said, "What decision did you make for me?"

From the last time Yu Duo took him to the construction site to sell to Lao Zhou, and then took him to buy a mobile phone, this is not the first time that Yu Duo has made his own decisions like this.

"Don't worry, I won't cheat you this time." Yu Duo pulled his legs out of Jiang Chiyu's arms, shook the quilt that had shrunk into a ball, and lay down on the ground again.

"I'll talk about it tomorrow." The soreness in the legs eased, followed by drowsiness.Yu Duo pulled up the quilt, closed his eyes, and said to Jiang Chiyu, "Hurry up and go to sleep."
