I really admire Cheng Yu. He didn't mind me at all even though I was so dirty. If it were my elder brother, he would have thrown me on the ground long ago.
First, he carried me into the room and gently laid me on the bed. After making sure I was lying comfortably, he went to clean the filth on himself.
A little while later, he came back and picked me up. "Get up. We're going to the hospital."
I burrowed into the quilt like a pangolin. "No... I'll be fine after a good sleep..."
Cheng Yu said, "You'll die if you just sleep!"
I retorted, "I won't go even if I die!"
Then I started crying again. Remembering that this heartless guy had scolded me for deserving it just now, I felt extremely aggrieved. "Wuwu, I don't want you to take care of me..."
When people are sick, they tend to become very delicate because of the discomfort, and their true nature, which is usually well - hidden, will also be exposed. I regretted what I said right after I blurted it out. Who was Cheng Yu to me? He cared about me and came to see me when I was sick. What right did I have to lose my temper with him?
I cried myself to exhaustion in a daze.
I found the room was very quiet.
Wuwu, did I scold him away...
After a while, I heard someone talking.
It was a pity that my eyelids were too heavy. I tried hard but couldn't lift them up.
I heard Cheng Yu's voice. "Thank you for the trouble. You're so busy but still found time to come."
There was also another man's voice. "Why are you being so polite with a friend? Who is she..."
Cheng Yu replied, "A friend."
The man said, "Oh? I've never heard that you have a female friend."
Cheng Yu said, "You can leave now if you're done."
The man said, "You should change your bad habit of being so impatient. Take off her clothes. She's wearing too much. Wrapping up too tightly when having a fever is not good for heat dissipation."
Cheng Yu said, "Turn around. Don't look."
The man replied, "Ah? Oh."
I felt someone pulling me out of the quilt. They undid my buttons one by one, then took off my thick coat. I felt a bit cold and shrank towards the warm source, but then someone pulled off my sleeves and took off my sweater. Finally, I was hugged tightly and stuffed back into the warm quilt.
Hmm... I stretched out my limbs. Finally, I didn't feel so suffocated as before.
I had just dozed off for a while when I was awakened by a stabbing pain on the back of my hand. I opened my eyelids and found that there was an unfamiliar man in the room besides Cheng Yu. That man was stabbing the back of my hand with a needle!
I struggled. "I don't..."
"Be good," Cheng Yu's slender fingers covered my eyes. "It doesn't hurt. It'll be over soon."
Wuwu...
I don't know if it was because I was sick.
People tend to become very emotional.
Cheng Yu's tone was so gentle, which was rare.
It made me want to cry.
My tears must have wet his fingers.
After a while, the tape was stuck on.
Cheng Yu's hand also left.
While wiping my tears with a tissue, he said to the man beside him, "She just needs to take medicine after the drip, right?"
The man replied, "Stay with her and observe her condition."
Cheng Yu said, "Okay."
The man asked, "What's your relationship with her exactly?"
Cheng Yu said, "Goodbye."
The man said, "..."
-
It became quiet again around me.
I didn't know what Cheng Yu was doing beside me. He was bustling around. I drifted in and out of dreams. His busy figure reminded me of my mother. Although my mother had married a foreigner and gone abroad for many years, for some reason, I suddenly felt that she was right here. "Mom... I want to drink water..."
"Mom" quickly brought the water over. She held my head and slowly fed the water into my mouth with a water cup.
The water Mom fed tasted so good. It was sweet...
I soon fell asleep again.
When I woke up again, I was much more sober. My body also felt lighter. The ceiling was no longer spinning crazily.
I looked beside me. Cheng Yu, wearing a thin shirt, was squatting beside the bed, pressing a cotton swab on the pinhole on the back of my hand.
After a while, the bleeding stopped. He threw the drip tube and the empty medicine bottle into the trash can.
I said, "..."
The embarrassment after waking up was really hard to escape.
The coat that I had vomited on was still hanging miserably on the chair at the door.
My throat was dry and my voice was hoarse. "I... you..."
Seeing that I was awake, Cheng Yu reached out to touch my forehead. "The fever is gone. Do you have an appetite?"
Yes, yes, yes!
Especially the one you cooked—
Cheng Yu said, "I cooked some porridge for you. Do you want to eat it?"
Yes, yes, yes!
It was a pity that my usual eloquence was of no use. As soon as I opened my mouth, my voice was soft and quieter than a cat's meow. "Um..."
He rubbed my head like he was stroking a cat, then got up. "Wait."
Ah...
I lay on the bed and sighed comfortably.
The feeling of being taken care of when sick was really great!
I've decided.
When I recover from my illness, I must seriously find a boyfriend!
-
Cheng Yu brought the porridge over. It was a very sticky and soft white rice porridge.
He was really good at cooking.
Even with the ordinary rice from our dormitory, he could cook such fragrant porridge.
He fed me mouthful by mouthful. I was sweating all over after eating the porridge. My back was soaked with sweat.
I quickly undid the buttons of my pajamas and took off my clothes, leaving only a white lace camisole. I felt my back. "It's all wet..."
I took off my clothes too freely and forgot there was someone else beside me.
I looked at Cheng Yu warily and found that he was looking elsewhere "like a gentleman".
Was it an illusion?
Cheng Yu's face seemed... a bit red.
Actually... it didn't matter, right?
Wasn't he gay? I hadn't taken all my clothes off. It couldn't be that bad!
I thought it was probably because we weren't familiar enough. I had seen other gay friends who even slept naked together.
These tacit understandings needed to be cultivated!
So I pretended to be nonchalant and said to Cheng Yu bare - chested, "Could you get me a sweatshirt? It's in the wardrobe in front of you. Thank you."
"Put your clothes on quickly," Cheng Yu found the sweatshirt and threw it at me with a "snap". "Don't catch a cold again."
I put it on right in front of him generously. "Okay."
Now the fever was gone and my stomach was full. I lay in bed and sincerely said to Cheng Yu, "I must have done something really good in my past eight lives to meet a great sister like you, Cheng Yu. I love you so much!"
Cheng Yu was shocked. "Sister?"
Me:?
Was it wrong?
Oh.
Even a bottom has the dream of being a top.
Although he was a bottom, it was obvious that he was trying hard to act like a top!
I quickly changed my words. "Good brother! Good buddy!"
I didn't know if the word "sister" had touched a sensitive chord in his heart. The tenderness on his face that had lasted for a whole night disappeared in an instant.
I'm sorry.
I was wrong.
"Sister" was a taboo word. I had flattered the wrong way. I would never say it again even if I was beaten to death.
-
I looked at the clock. It was already past nine o'clock at night.
I said, "I'm really sorry. I've taken up so much of your time by making you take care of me when I'm sick."
Cheng Yu probably had a cleanliness fetish. He had been silently tidying up my messy room. He threw the empty drink bottles that had been on the table for several days into the trash can. "It's because of me that you got sick. It's only right for me to take care of you."
I said, "Ah! Don't say that! I didn't know that buying a pair of shoes would take so long to queue up. And as luck would have it... Sigh. If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have bought those shoes. You don't even like them..."
Cheng Yu said, "Who said I don't like them?"
Me:!!!
I was instantly overjoyed. "You like them? That's great! It's worth queuing up all night! Do you know? I was so lucky when I bought these shoes. There were only a few pairs, but I managed to get one. I feel that these shoes will definitely bring you good luck!"
While I was chattering away, Cheng Yu sighed. "Don't do such a stupid thing again. It's not worth queuing up all night for a pair of shoes and getting a cold from the cold."
Aww~
It turned out that he didn't dislike them. He was just so worried about me that he had been pretending to be angry on purpose!
Sister, no, buddy, you're so cute!
I happily hugged his arm and looked into his eyes. "It's definitely worth it. It's worth it as long as you like them!"
