stars run to him

【72】

After Gu Zhongyi received the news from the property management that the light at home had been turned on, he hurried back to the community without stopping.

When he opened the door of the apartment, it was already pitch black, as quiet as if no one had been there.Fortunately, a trace of bitter citrus pheromone in the house told him the direction.

Gu Zhongyi turned on the light, and in a corner of the bedroom, he found Lin Yuxing with his head buried in his knees.

He finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Yu Xing."

Lin Yuxing didn't react at all, as if he had fallen asleep in this position.

Gu Zhongyi walked forward slowly, and what he touched was Lin Yuxing's cold arm.

The wet single clothes stuck to Lin Yuxing's body, so that Gu Zhongyi couldn't care about anything else for the time being, he hugged the stiff Lin Yuxing, and almost woke up the drowsy Lin Yuxing in an extremely "rude" way.

In a daze, Lin Yuxing gasped, his eyelids were too heavy to open.

Gu Zhongyi put the back of his hand on his forehead, and as expected, Lin Yuxing had a fever.

Gu Zhongyi didn't say a word harshly, nor did he ask what happened to Lin Yuxing.He quickly took off Lin Yuxing's underwear, picked up a small blanket beside the bed and wrapped it around Lin Yuxing, using it as a towel to wipe off the wet water droplets on Lin Yuxing's body.

"Well."

Lin Yuxing shrank into a ball tremblingly, dodging subconsciously.

Gu Zhongyi stuffed him into the bed without any excuse, then went to get the hair dryer, tossed Lin Yuxing up again, let him sit in his arms, and dried his half-wet hair.

Lin Yuxing's mouth was parched from the warm wind, and he opened his eyes with difficulty.His voice was extremely hoarse, so hoarse that he lost the last half of the word: "Senior."

"You have a fever, I'm going to get the medicine."

Lin Yuxing reacted slowly to Gu Zhongyi's words, his whole body was numb, his head was as heavy as a big stone falling down, he said softly: "Every time, I trouble you, I'm sorry..."

Gu Zhongyi rubbed his ears, and said softly, "You are not my trouble."

Lin Yuxing's nose was sore, and he said softly: "I'm very uncomfortable."

Gu Zhongyi said: "I'll be right back."

After Gu Zhongyi left the room, Lin Yuxing hugged the quilt guiltily with dry eyes.

There was no hot water in the unoccupied apartment for more than two weeks, so Gu Zhongyi boiled a pot and took out a bottle of mineral water from the storage room.Within 3 minutes of waiting for the water to boil, he called Lin Yuheng and Su Yu respectively: "I'm here, don't worry."

Lin Yuheng is not easy to fool, he asked: "What happened to Xingxing?"

When Gu Zhongyi saw that the water was boiling, he didn't bother to talk to Lin Yuheng in detail: "I don't know yet, he got caught in the rain and has a little fever. Let's talk about it later." He said, "Including the matter of M City."

Gu Zhongyi hung up the phone, and took out a tablet of antipyretic medicine from the medicine box in the cabinet in the living room.

The black leather box on the coffee table quickly attracted his attention, making him feel a little uncomfortable.

Gu Zhongyi stepped forward to open it, and the photos of the twins appeared in front of his eyes.He was startled, and flipping through it casually, he saw a bank card in a diary.

Gu Zhongyi frowned, and after flipping through a few pages of the diary, he probably understood who came to see Lin Yuxing today.Except for Qu Lingnian, there is no one else who can have these things.

He never thought that Qu Lingnian would find Lin Yuxing, this was an unexpected situation that he did not expect.

Thinking of Lin Yuxing's current appearance, Gu Zhongyi closed the box extremely displeased.

In the bedroom with the door ajar, there were several violent coughing sounds.

Gu Zhongyi understands that now is not the time to think about these things.

He returned to the table, poured half a cup of hot water into the cup, and mixed some mineral water into it. After making sure that the water temperature was right, he carried them into the bedroom.

On the bed, Lin Yuxing supported her body, moved slowly, and leaned against the head of the bed, coughing and retching.He covered his mouth, and he didn't know how long he had been crying, his eyes were so red that it made people feel distressed.

Gu Zhongyi sat by the bed and carefully fed Lin Yuxing the medicine.

Lin Yuxing was so thirsty, he drank the water in the glass in one go, and his hoarse throat felt better.He couldn't exert all his strength, and was embraced by Gu Zhongyi within two strokes.

Leaning on Gu Zhongyi's body, he said softly, "My whole body hurts."

"That's what happens when you have a fever." Gu Zhongyi rubbed Lin Yuxing's sore arm with a slight force, "When the medicine takes effect, it will get better."

Gu Zhongyi's pheromone is sweet, which is the best soothing pheromone for Omega.

In this environment, Lin Yuxing's tense nerves gradually relaxed, and he was no longer as tense as before.

He turned around, put his cheek against Gu Zhongyi's chest, and smelled the sweet smell of Gu Zhongyi's body: "Senior, I still hurt."

"Where does it hurt?"

He clenched his teeth and said weakly, "It hurts everywhere."

The night was dark, and outside the window with half-drawn curtains, there was continuous rain.

Gu Zhongyi stroked Lin Yuxing's back with his palm, stroking away the pain caused by the fever.

In the environment built by soothing pheromones, Lin Yuxing's dull head like a rusty machine had thoughts.His hands were weakly grabbing the corner of Gu Zhongyi's clothes, tears kept pouring out, soaking Gu Zhongyi's single clothes.

Lin Yuxing's crying was silent, like a drop of rain buried in the clouds.

So, Gu Zhongyi touched him over and over again, tirelessly.

Lin Yuxing was dizzy from being touched by Gu Zhongyi's palm, so he bit his own lip, tasted a smell of rust, and barely kept awake.

He rubbed against Gu Zhongyi, and the warm moisture spread across Gu Zhongyi's chest.

Because of Lin Yuxing's breathing, his chest was always hot.

Gu Zhongyi's eyes darkened, and he hugged the person in his arms tightly with all his heartache.The two lay down on their backs, and Lin Yuxing clung to Gu Zhongyi completely in a dependent posture.

In the long silence, Lin Yuxing got a bit of relief, and also found a sense of belonging.

He finally opened his mouth and confided to Gu Zhongyi.

"Today, I met my brother's adoptive father."

"He said... my brother is dead."

Just two sentences.

Hoarse, heartbroken, and eye-burning.

Lin Yuxing clenched his lower lip repeatedly, unable to cry out, his emotion was like a volcano about to erupt, and it was backlogged in his heart, even more like a stick in his throat, which made him unable to breathe.

"He said my brother was dead..."

The soothing pheromones seem to be ineffective.

Lin Yuxing's shoulders began to tremble violently, and his whole body trembled, like a late collapse.

But in fact, he has collapsed countless times, in his heart and consciousness.

"I don't have an older brother," he repeated again and again, feeling lost, "I really don't have an older brother."

The moon that should have hung in the night sky disappeared tonight.

Lin Yuxing was short of breath, because he was sick, his cheeks were extremely hot, and the antipyretic medicine seemed to have failed.If it weren't for Gu Zhongyi's soothing pheromone, and Gu Zhongyi's patient stop, he might have bitten his lower lip.

In order to interrupt Lin Yuxing's abnormal behavior, Gu Zhongyi stuffed his thumb into Lin Yuxing's mouth, forcibly stopping his unconscious behavior.

Lin Yuxing was reluctant to bite Gu Zhongyi, but he couldn't stop this behavior.He rubbed against Gu Zhongyi's fingers in pain, and still accidentally left a few rows of teeth marks.

"Well……"

Gu Zhongyi endured the pain, and comforted him: "Yu Xing, cry out."

"..."

"Don't bear it." Gu Zhongyi's voice was gentle and deep, and he kept saying, "Be obedient, you will feel much better if you cry."

Lin Yuxing raised his eyes hastily, tears blurred his vision, he blinked hard, tears were knocked off by his eyelashes.

Raindrops fell from the clouds.

His vision was clear for a few seconds, and after seeing the pain and worry on Gu Zhongyi's face, Lin Yuxing suddenly became quiet and remained motionless.

It wasn't until Gu Zhongyi pulled out his thumb and lightly touched Lin Yuxing's cheek that Lin Yuxing whimpered and burst into tears of grievance.

He cried loudly, like a child who has been robbed of candy.

He also seemed to have returned to the orphanage when he was a child. He cried loudly in front of Lin Yuheng, because he was helpless and weak, and the only way to express his depression was to cry.

He can't do anything, he can't do anything.

At this moment, he has nothing to do.

"He came back to find me... He saved me two years ago, he didn't want me..."

Lin Yuxing attributed the mistake to himself incoherently: "But why, why didn't he tell me? He left me again... Is it because I always, always cause trouble for him, and I'm always disobedient..."

Gu Zhongyi hugged him, exerting strength in his arms.

Lin Yuxing said in pain: "My heart hurt that day, it really hurt, I felt like I couldn't breathe, as if I was thrown into the water..."

The book once said that a small number of twins will have telepathy when encountering life and death.

And Lin Yuxing didn't know until today that it wasn't because he saw a car accident that he became seriously ill back then.That illness was the news of Lin Yuheng's death.In Lin Yuxing's eyes now, it was more like a distress signal from his brother.

He has no idea.

Immediately, Lin Yuxing was filled with a sense of powerlessness.A tidal wave of guilt surged in his heart, he had a terrifying thought, and muttered to himself: "...Yes, he replaced me."

Same day, same car.

Was it Lin Yuheng who replaced him?

Thinking of this, Lin Yuxing suddenly covered his heart in despair, and beat hard.He couldn't think about it anymore, his heart was going to explode, he was so sad that he was going crazy.

Gu Zhongyi grabbed his hand: "Don't do this!"

At this moment, Lin Yuxing was like a drowning man who saw a life-saving straw. He desperately held Gu Zhongyi's hand, praying and expressing unrealistic wishes without willfulness.

"Can you help me?"

"Yu Xing."

"I, I can do anything, can you help me find my brother?"

He was so helpless that he started talking nonsense, the heat of his body completely messed up his reason, he cried and said: "I miss him, I miss him all the time, you don't know how much I miss him..."

Lin Yuxing almost lost his voice: "Why doesn't he want me anymore?"

Gu Zhongyi hesitated to speak, he could only pat Lin Yuxing on the back, and accompanied Lin Yuxing to vent the pain in his heart.

The citrus pheromones in the bedroom are bitter and astringent.

Lin Yuxing cried heartbreakingly like this for a long time, until his voice became hoarse, and the bitterness in his pheromone gradually faded by half.

He was still choked up like a child: "I miss my brother...help me find him, help me..."

The sound is getting smaller and smaller.

He seemed unable to cry anymore, but he persisted.

Gu Zhongyi said in a deep voice, "I'll help you find him."

"Do not lie to me."

"I won't lie to you, I will help you find him." Gu Zhongyi promised, "Definitely."

Finally, the whole day's hard work and depression turned into countless exhaustions, all of which fell on Lin Yuxing.He huddled into a ball with sobs, and fell asleep in his most familiar position.

Gu Zhongyi kissed his frowning brows, wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes with his fingertips, and gently tucked in the quilt.

Looking at Lin Yuxing who was crying until even the tip of his nose turned red, Gu Zhongyi felt very heavy.
