half blind

Zhang Qing stayed in Zhou Nanchen's ward.

At around nine o'clock, Li Fan came, brought a few employees from the service team, and brought a lot of food, drink, and condolences. The one who "cleaned the table for Chen Kaige" was the most active, and sat beside Zhou Nanchen's bed Just chatted with him, chatting until almost ten o'clock before leaving.

Zhang Qing admired him a lot, Zhou Nanchen didn't speak more than ten words from the beginning to the end, thanks to him being able to talk for a few minutes by himself.

After ten o'clock, all the condolences left. A teenage girl was lying on the hospital bed next to her. There was a pair of crutches next to the bed. She didn't know where she was injured, and no one came to visit her all night. sick.

"Do you want to sleep?" Zhang Qing roughly tucked Zhou Nanchen's quilt.

"Not sleepy." Zhou Nanchen shook his head.

"Does your hand still hurt?" Zhang Qing asked.

"Yes." Zhou Nanchen said honestly.

Tonight Zhou Nanchen was unexpectedly honest, he would do whatever Zhang Qing asked him to do, and answer whatever Zhang Qing asked him to do, as obedient as a rabbit.

Fortunately, this guy still has a little vision, so he knows that he can't mess with him anymore.

"How about I order some painkillers for you and the nurse?" Zhang Qing asked.

"No need." Zhou Nanchen shook his head, "I heard that if you eat too much of that stuff, your brain will become stupid."

"You don't need to worry about this, you are already an insurmountable ultimate fool." Zhang Qing said angrily.

Zhou Nanchen laughed so happily that Zhang Qing wanted to punch him in the face.

"Do you want to stay here overnight?" Zhou Nanchen asked again.

"What's the matter? You let me go back in the dark by myself? Forget it." Zhang Qing clicked his tongue, "I'm afraid that I'll stumble on the ground and eat a mouthful of mud."

Zhou Nanchen smiled, "Then where do you sleep?"

Zhang Qing patted the chair that accompanied the bed, "Isn't it?"

Zhou Nanchen frowned, "You will definitely break your cervical spine the next day after shrinking like this for a whole night."

"That can't be helped." Zhang Qing patted the chair and pondered for a while, "It seems that it can't be laid flat. Why doesn't this hospital even have a folding bed? It's too much."

Zhou Nanchen propped up his body slightly, "Go up and sleep."

"Go..." Zhang Qing was taken aback for a moment, and then realized what Zhou Nanchen meant, "No, no need, I'm not so delicate, it's just a night, I—"

Zhou Nanchen didn't speak, but shrank to the side, giving Zhang Qing half of the bed.

The beds in the hospital were not too narrow, and it seemed that even two grown men would be squeezed in without any problem.

It would be too hypocritical to refuse at this time.Zhang Qing sighed, took off his shoes, sat up on them, and lay down slowly beside Zhou Nanchen.

"Turn off the lights, turn off the lights! Rest early!" The nurse's voice came from outside the door, and not long after, the lights in their wards were also turned off.

In the darkness, neither of them spoke.But Zhang Qing could hear Zhou Nanchen's clear breathing, as well as the heat coming from his side.

All of this was full of strange familiarity. He slightly tilted his head in Zhou Nanchen's direction, feeling that life is really miraculous.

The person he loved most seven years ago returned to his life in this way seven years later.

For a while, Zhang Qing was very afraid that he would not forget him, but even more afraid that he would forget him.The torrent of time can take away too many things, and memories are just an insignificant item.

Before meeting Zhou Nanchen again, Zhang Qing thought that the past had been forgotten.After meeting him again, he realized that some things were deeply imprinted in his soul, and he would never forget them even if he wanted to.

"Do you remember that the two of us squeezed into a small bed like this before?" Zhou Nanchen suddenly whispered in the darkness.

Perhaps the darkness covered up something, and Zhang Qing's tense nerves also relaxed.

He smiled, "Remember, it should be the first semester of the second year of high school. I will take my game console to your house to play."

"You saved the pocket money for several months and finally bought it." Zhou Nanchen answered.

"That's right." Zhang Qing said with a smile, "At that time, I didn't know how many times I lied to my dad, saying that the school bought teaching materials. That game console is simply the crystallization of my battle of wits and courage with my dad."

"At that time, you went to my house to play all night every day."

"It's not as exaggerated as Tiantian." Zhang Qing rubbed his nose, "Just...five days a week?"

Zhou Nanchen burst out laughing.

"Anyway, I told my family to go to school for self-study. Because I have always behaved very well, they didn't doubt it." Zhang Qing sighed, "It's also thanks to my skill at improvising, I force myself before the exam. The score is about the same as usual, otherwise it will definitely be exposed."

"At that time your cat was playing games in my room, and you would lie down on my bed when you were sleepy." Zhou Nanchen said with a smile in his tone, "When I came back after washing, you laid my whole bed in all directions. If you occupy it, just give me a butt."

"Damn." Zhang Qing smiled and cursed softly.

"I still have to push your butt away to clear a space for myself." Zhou Nanchen said softly, "But it's useless, because the next morning you squeezed me halfway out."

"I, I declare in advance, I will definitely not be like that now!" Zhang Qing's face was a little hot, "My roommates in college said that my sleeping position is standard."

"Okay, then I'll trust you for now." Zhou Nanchen chuckled a few times, and Zhang Qing could feel the vibration in his chest.

After being silent for a while, Zhang Qing said: "Actually, when you think about it, I didn't spend much time at home. I stayed more before high school, because I was not very good at lying. I learned to lie in high school. Now, either I went to school for self-study, or I went to the library to read books. I never confronted them head-on, and they thought happily that they had raised a son who had no rebellious period."

Zhou Nanchen didn't answer, so Zhang Qing continued.

"It's a pity that something big happened later. This unlucky couple suddenly discovered that their son not only had a relationship behind their backs, but also had a relationship with a man. Oh, I feel a little bit sorry for them now when I think about it, how old is that?" It was struck by lightning one day. At that time, my dad beat me up like that, gasping for breath twice, I thought he was going to have a heart attack."

Zhou Nanchen still didn't speak, but Zhang Qing could hear his breathing in the dark, knowing that he was not asleep.

"The game console was also smashed that time." Zhang Qing smiled, "There are hundreds of things in the ocean, and they just smash them. They don't know how to care about their own money. In fact, they have never cared about their son's growth. , but in turn complained that I didn't know what to do, didn't know how to be grateful, and shut me up at home for a month without giving up a single step. If the neighbors didn't know, they thought I was dead at home."

"I understand now that people like my dad have no family affection in their eyes, only business and face are the most important. He has nothing but a good mouth. My mother quit her job very early and became a full-time housewife. I even think that I am the patriarch who supports the whole family—anyway, no matter what he says, my mother dare not object."

Zhang Qing sighed for a long time, he didn't know why he suddenly said so much to Zhou Nanchen.Maybe it was late at night, maybe it was the temperature radiating from Zhou Nanchen's body that made him feel safe after a long absence.

"Later, they found me climbing the window to escape, and the two of them were so angry that they were livid. I wanted to run, but my dad didn't stop me, so he just stood there and shouted to me with a majestic look,' If you run away, don’t even think about entering this house again’. He thought he could scare me, but he didn’t know me at all. A security guard forcibly sent me back, so I might not be able to resist and have nothing to do. If you want to scare me with the things of the elders, I will not follow his way."

"So, you never went back again?" Zhou Nanchen said.

"Yeah." Zhang Qing replied sullenly, "I lived on campus for the third year of high school, and neither of them came to see me. Later, I went to a university in other places, and that's how I stayed."

Zhang Qing opened his eyes, staring blankly at the darkness that should be the ceiling.Only at this time, whether the vision is clear or not is the same.

"Actually, after I ran away, I quickly found a place to work, and even found a very cheap monthly rental house with a double bed." Zhang Qing laughed at himself, "But you disappeared, no matter how hard you searched, you couldn't find it." , I asked the neighbors and they said they didn’t know, and the teacher only said that you transferred schools. You didn’t leave me any news, you didn’t even have a fucking suicide note, so you ran away. Why are you so silent? ran away?"

"I..." Zhou Nanchen's voice floated in the air.

"You fucking shut up." Zhang Qing turned over and slapped Zhou Nanchen, "Shut up if you don't want to talk, don't be sorry to me all day long."

Zhou Nanchen had no choice but to say "hmm".

"Zhou Nanchen."

"Ok?"

"I just want to tell you that I didn't mean to force you, nor do I want to make you feel guilty. Don't say anything you don't want to say. I don't have to listen to your secret." Zhang Qing whispered, "It's just... I hope that one day, after you figure it out, you can tell me yourself."

Zhou Nanchen was silent for a long time, and when Zhang Qing was still drowsy, he gave a soft "hmm".

Zhang Qing unexpectedly slept soundly that night. He thought that he would have some messy dreams at night after talking about so many things from the past before going to bed.But amazingly, he slept until dawn without dreaming all night.

Because of the deep sleep, he opened his eyes and was stunned for a few seconds, until he saw the unique white bedding of the hospital, and realized where he was now.

Then he froze.

Because the next thing he noticed was that he hugged Zhou Nanchen tightly like an octopus, whose body temperature was only transmitted to his body through a thin layer of fabric.

"Damn it." Zhang Qing cursed in a low voice, swallowed, carefully peeled off his limbs from Zhou Nanchen's body lightly, and looked at his face carefully, and found that he hadn't woken up yet. Signs, this is a sigh of relief.

It's all to blame for the damn sleeping habit I developed, I have to hug something to fall asleep, bah!

Zhang Qing stretched, drank some water, and then went to the bathroom to tidy up briefly. When she came back, she heard rustling sounds from the next bed, and the little girl woke up.

Zhang Qing was in a good mood, and took the initiative to say hello to the little girl, "Are you awake?"

The little girl's shadow swayed for a moment, and Zhang Qing could now skillfully judge that it was a nod.

The little girl was quiet from the beginning to the end. She hadn't spoken a word last night, and she didn't see anyone visiting her. Zhang Qing couldn't help feeling sorry for her that such a small child was hospitalized alone.

"What's your name?" Zhang Qing sat down beside the little girl's bed.

"Xinxin." The girl smiled shyly.

"Xinxin, you can just call me Brother Qing." Zhang Qing smiled slightly, "Where is your injury?"

"I fell off my leg while jumping high." Xinxin smiled, "But the doctor said it's nothing serious, and it will be fine after three months of plaster."

"Oh." Zhang Qing nodded, "Our one is also fractured, but better than yours, he has a left arm."

Xinxin nodded, looking like a grown-up, "That's pretty good, it won't affect life much."

"Yeah." Zhang Qing smiled and changed the subject, "Where are your parents? Why haven't they come to see you?"

"My father said that in the future I would have to go to the hospital alone when I was injured." Xinxin said, "He said that this would cultivate my ability to deal with problems independently."

Zhang Qing was taken aback by the familiarity of this educational policy. How could he be so similar to his stupid parents?

"I'm a sports student, and I'm often injured." Xinxin added, "It's okay, I'm not afraid."

Zhang Qing's heart ached for the child's strength. He grabbed the little girl's hand and shook it firmly, "It's nothing to be ashamed to be afraid once in a while. Everyone will be afraid of things like injuries and fractures."

The little girl glanced at Zhou Nanchen out of the corner of her eye, and asked in a low voice, "Will the big brother on the bed over there be scared too?"

"Yes." Zhang Qing smiled, and deliberately lowered his voice, "Let me tell you, he was scared. When he was sent in yesterday, he was so scared that he almost peed his pants."

"Really?" The little girl's eyes sparkled.

"Really, it's a puppy who lied to you." Zhang Qing affirmed with a serious face.

Zhou Nanchen actually woke up a long time ago. When he opened his eyes, he saw Zhang Qing hugging him and sleeping soundly, so he closed his eyes silently.About another 10 minutes later, I heard Zhang Qing gasping for air and saying "Damn it".

So Zhou Nanchen decided to continue pretending to be asleep, lest Zhang Qing feel embarrassed.

But even so, Zhou Nanchen opened his eyes helplessly when he heard Zhang Qing say that he almost peed his pants in fright and thought his voice was so low that he couldn't hear him.

Zhang Qing and the little girl didn't know what to say, and laughed mysteriously together.

"Zhang Qing." Zhou Nanchen turned his head, "I'm hungry."

"Hey." Zhang Qing looked back at him with a smile on his lips, "Are you awake?"

Zhou Nanchen nodded silently.

"Okay, let me buy something for you two." Zhang Qing stood up from the chair, lowered his head and asked Xinxin, "What do you want to eat?"

Xinxin said loudly: "It's all right, thank you Brother Qing."

Xinxin added a double word after his address, which made Zhang Qing very useful, "Okay, wait!"

"Why don't I go with you." Before leaving, Zhou Nanchen tugged at his wrist, "Your eyes..."

"Just lie down." Zhang Qing whispered, "At worst, I'll buy whatever the people in front buy. I can still do this little thing."

Zhou Nanchen let go, "That's fine, I want to eat meat buns."

Zhang Qing pushed Zhou Nanchen's waist with his knee, "I even kicked my nose on my face!"

Zhou Nanchen smiled, "I'm just kidding, let's go."

After Zhang Qing left, the ward became quiet again.Zhou Nanchen tilted his head and looked at the little girl named Xinxin. The little girl sat up on the bed and was quietly reading a book.

"Xinxin." Zhou Nanchen tilted his body to the little girl's side, and called her very seriously, "Don't believe what Brother Qing said just now, I didn't scare my pants yesterday."

Xin Xinle made a sound, covering her mouth and laughing for a long time.

"Big Brother, what is your relationship with Brother Qing?"

"Want to know?" Zhou Nanchen rubbed his body forward again.

Xinxin nodded vigorously.

Zhou Nanchen showed a smile, and said in a low voice, "He is the most important and favorite person to me in this world."
