Chapter 33. Chapter 33. Buried into the man's muscular chest. ...
The man, who was still at the hospital at the time, was about to leave work and was instructing the on-duty doctor, Lü Dongyi: "The incision in bed 29 is not healing very well, so we need to pay more attention to it. Bed 31 has developed urticaria, and we have already called the dermatology department."
“Okay.” Lu Dong nodded. “Since your apartment is so close, don’t rush off. Have a bite to eat with me before you go. I ordered from that really delicious Sichuan restaurant.”
The man had already stood up, showing no intention of lingering.
"They're gone."
"What's the rush? Are you in such a hurry to go home and be with your sister-in-law?" Lu Dong joked, his expression a little cheeky. "Didn't you say you were going to treat us to dinner last time? It's been so long... Are you hiding your sister-in-law from us?"
The man raised an eyebrow slightly and strode away, saying, "Hmm, I won't let him see me."
I won't let anyone else see it.
He could still hear Lü Dongyi clicking his tongue as he walked outside the door.
As soon as I got off the elevator, I received a message on my phone.
A naughty capybara: [Dr. Guan, I'm back.]
A naughty capybara: [I'm home.]
A naughty capybara: [Are you coming back for dinner tonight?]
G: [Your aunt and brother are gone?]
A naughty capybara: [Yeah.]
A bad capybara: [Gone.]
G: [Okay.]
G: [Just got off work, will be there in ten minutes.]
A naughty capybara: [Okay.]
For some reason, he felt that today's journey was exceptionally long and the time seemed to drag on forever.
When we got home, the capybara was wearing an apron and tinkering in the kitchen.
"What are you doing?"
Pei Xi turned around and saw that the man was already standing behind him.
The little capybara answered sincerely, sticking its hand out of the rice-rinsing water: "Hmm, I want to cook."
"What kind of food are you making?" The man's tone carried a hint of ill intent.
Pei Xi paused for a moment, then said, "Um... just... just white rice? Dr. Guan, don't you want to eat rice? How about noodles?"
He only knows how to make noodles.
"Let's eat." The man said, reaching out to untie the bow tie on the young man's back. "Take it off and give it to me."
The capybara wanted to say he would do it.
But before she could even say it, the man rejected her again.
"I'll do it."
"Then I'll wash the vegetables and help out." It's probably because his cooking is really mediocre...and Dr. Guan doesn't like it.
He took off his apron.
The collar of the apron also carried a hint of plum fragrance.
Guan Yue put on the apron: "Help me tie it at the back, I don't need any other help."
Upon hearing this, Pei Qi obediently helped tie the apron.
Why does it always feel so strange when I tie an apron on Dr. Guan?
The main problem is that Dr. Guan's narrow waist is just too long...
"What are you thinking about again?" Guan Yue turned around and saw the capybara that was daydreaming.
He is now very familiar with Pei Qi's micro-expressions, especially the micro-expressions when she is lost in thought.
After all, this naughty capybara almost always seems to be daydreaming when they kiss.
Pei Qi then came to her senses and said in a completely unconvincing way, "No... I wasn't thinking about anything."
The man said a few more words to get rid of him, and then he chased the young man out of the kitchen.
Pei Qi sat on the comfortable sofa in the living room, and could see the man wearing an apron cooking through the glass door.
It's alright.
Thankfully, Dr. Guan was there.
Then he shook his head, thinking, "What a dangerous idea..."
The phone displayed several messages from Pei Xi.
Pei Xi: [Brother, what happened between you and Mom?]
Pei Xi: [Did you two have a fight?]
Pei Xi: [Sigh, Mom really is...]
Pei Xi: [She ordered a whole plate of shredded carrots for me and insisted I finish it. I was shaking all over after just one bite.]
Pei Xi hates carrots, and Pei Xi knows this too.
Pei Xi: [That's just how she is; you have to listen to her in everything.]
Pei Xi: [I support your resistance, bro! /[Rise up][Rise up]]
Pei Xi: [But please don't ignore me either. /[crying][crying]]
Seven: [I'm not ignoring you, I just didn't see your message. /[pat]]
Seven: [What I have with Mom is none of your business.]
Seven: [If you need any help later, just tell me.]
Pei Xi: [Okay, I'll come find you this weekend. /[crying][crying]]
After replying to Pei Xi's message, the little capybara's mind started replaying the scene of its confrontation with Jiang Shulin that afternoon.
He thought of what the woman had said, and then he thought of what he had said.
I can't quite describe the feeling, but at least I've said it.
"Dinner's ready." The man worked quickly, cooking several dishes in no time. "Come and eat."
The capybara also recovered and stood up: "Coming."
The two sat facing each other while eating.
The capybara was somewhat distracted as it picked at its rice.
The man looked at her, frowning slightly, but quickly concealed it: "Have they all moved into the new apartment? Has Auntie gone back to Ningcheng?"
"Um... I moved there." The young man's answer was somewhat vague, and he even picked up a piece of green pepper because he was so distracted.
The man's brow furrowed even more: "What's wrong with you?"
"Um, nothing...nothing." Pei Qi's thoughts were pulled back, and she realized that she had picked up a piece of green pepper.
Guan Yue: "When did you change your taste? Did you start eating spicy food?"
"Want to try..." he said, forcing himself to speak, and then stuffed the green pepper into his mouth.
He thought the green peppers probably wouldn't be very spicy.
Indeed, it might not be very spicy, but for him, it's nothing compared to what he's used to.
"Cough..." The little capybara's face turned red from holding its breath, and its throat started to burn the moment it swallowed.
The man in front of him frowned more and more as he pushed a glass of cold water toward the young man.
"Glug glug".
Pei Xi tilted his head back and swallowed the entire glass of water.
This finally relieved the spiciness in my mouth.
"Try... the attempt failed, haha." The capybara, ignited by a bit of green pepper, even had its neck turn pink.
Guan Yue sighed helplessly and said sternly, "Don't try these things."
The little capybara nodded obediently: "I'm full, Dr. Guan, eat slowly."
He remembered that the young man had only served him a small amount of rice.
His brow furrowed into a "川" (river) shape.
After the young man finished eating, he sat on the sofa in a daze, seemingly watching TV, but he didn't actually hear a single word spoken.
He didn't know whether he should tell Dr. Guan.
How should I put it?
I had a big fight with my mother, and then I told myself that I would never contact her again.
It feels like something outrageously disrespectful.
Besides, you can't exactly treat Dr. Guan as your emotional dumping ground.
Actually, he feels much more at ease now as long as Dr. Guan is around.
That's pretty scary.
The little capybara finished its bath in the bathroom with this brainstorming session, and then stayed in the bedroom for a long time.
I did nothing, just spaced out.
Various thoughts were fighting and entangled in my mind.
It gave him a headache.
It's almost 10 o'clock.
There was a knock on the bedroom door.
The capybara, which had been lying on the beanbag chair in the bedroom, slowly got up to open the door.
Guan Yue, dressed in a set of home clothes, stood in front of the door, holding a nightlight shaped like a small capybara.
"I found this at the supermarket yesterday. I tried it out, and the light is very comfortable. It's made of eye-friendly material." The man looked down at the night light in his hand.
The nightlight was originally plugged into the bedside table on the other side of his bed.
"Did you buy this especially for me?" The capybara's eyes, which had been dull all night, suddenly lit up.
"It's not that I said we'd sleep together when you come back. I just thought the lamp was too bright and was thinking of buying a nightlight." The man's tone was very casual. "If we don't sleep together, I won't need it, and it'll be a waste to leave it there."
Pei Qi then remembered that Guan Yue had said he would wait for him to come back and sleep together that night.
"Again...again we're not sleeping together?" The young man seemed genuinely puzzled.
Why did we suddenly deviate from the original plan?
Guan Yue's tone turned harsher: "You're willing? You just want to avoid sleeping together, don't you?"
Otherwise, why would he always be so absent-minded, dawdling, and hesitant when speaking to him?
It's like he's some kind of bad guy.
......
"I...I didn't refuse, let's sleep together." Although she didn't know how Dr. Guan came to this conclusion, the little capybara felt that the most important thing was to clarify that she did not refuse.
The man paused for a few seconds while holding the nightlight, then walked back, saying, "Don't force yourself. I didn't think much of it about us sleeping together."
The little capybara followed the wolf's paw prints, step by step, towards another bedroom: "It's not forced."
The nightlight was plugged back into the bedside table: "Then you can sleep here."
"Okay." Pei Qi nodded and sat down on the edge of the bed.
Dr. Guan's bed sheets were the same set he had chosen last time, a rare light color that, surprisingly, created a unique feel against the dark-toned, minimalist bedroom.
It's quite well-designed.
The young man lay down somewhat awkwardly in one side of the bed, leaving only the small capybara-shaped nightlight on in the bedroom.
The light is indeed very comfortable, good for the eyes, and has a warm, cozy feel.
Pei Xi opened her eyes and turned her head to look at the night lamp beside her.
The light illuminates the lamp body, revealing the comical image of a capybara holding a light bulb.
They're quite cute.
"If you find sleeping with me uncomfortable, then forget it," the man lying on the other side of the bed suddenly said slowly.
The little capybara, which had been facing away from itself, turned around and said, "I didn't notice."
What's there to be upset about? After all, Dr. Guan didn't speak, and he completely forgot that there was someone lying next to him.
The night light illuminated the contours and shadows of Guan Yue's face.
Such smooth lines, such a superior nose peak.
The young man couldn't help but move a little closer to the man, blinking as he carefully examined him.
It's really beautiful.
A faint scent of cedar wafted into my nostrils.
The little capybara opened its lips, and a few drops of water appeared in its clear, round eyes: "I don't feel uncomfortable sleeping with Dr. Guan."
Guan Yue: "So what's wrong with you today?"
Pei Xi: "Um...nothing."
Guan Yue: "Who are you kidding? You can usually eat two bowls of rice."
Pei Xi: "..."
So this is where they slipped up?
Well, I had to say it eventually anyway.
"I feel like I'm a little bad, so bad that I'm worried Dr. Guan might also think I did something wrong," the little capybara said, burrowing deeper into the blankets. "Dr. Guan might find it uncomfortable to sleep with me, haha."
Those watery eyes, peeking out from under the covers, were still incredibly alluring under the night light.
Suddenly, my waist tightened.
A powerful force gripped the little capybara's soft waist, and then he was pulled and fell into a warm and firm embrace.
And just like that, without warning, he buried his face in the man's muscular chest...
