Chapter 50 "Dr. Guan, I... feel unwell..."
Guan Yue: "........."
The capybara didn't even know how it managed to ask the question, and immediately regretted it afterward.
He wasn't actually the kind of person who liked to pry into others' privacy, but he didn't know why he had asked that question.
Guan Yue remained slightly tilted forward on the sofa, without opening his mouth to answer.
His eyes, still quite dark, were fixed intently on the little capybara.
Pei Xi couldn't quite withstand such a penetrating gaze, so she lowered her gaze even further.
His mouth is so dry, he should have some tea too.
The young man was about to pick up the glass when he realized that his wrist was still being held.
She struggled a little harder, then weakly said, "I want some water..."
Three seconds later, the wrist was finally released.
Pei Xi's skin is very thin and fair, so it's easy for it to turn red if you touch it.
Now his wrist, which was finally freed, was also like this; the tightly gripped wrist joint was flushed pink and gradually expanded.
Because it was wrapped very tightly, there was still a thin layer of sweat on my skin.
The capybara wasn't too concerned about its wrist; it was just thirsty and wanted to drink water.
So he picked up the glass on the table and drank most of it in one gulp.
He's never been a good tea connoisseur, and this time he couldn't taste anything special, except that his throat felt a little less dry.
"Whose birthday do you think it is?" The man finally answered Pei Qi's question.
That doesn't really count as an answer.
Pei Xi tilted his head back and drank all the hot tea in the cup, leaving only the tea leaves after they had been steeped.
"Hmm..." He was a little taken aback by the question, and after a moment he tentatively asked, "Is it... Dr. Guan's ex-boyfriend?"
Guan Yue: "......"
The capybara assumed the man's silence was because it had guessed correctly.
He finally got up from the carpet, moved to the sofa, and sat down next to Guan Yue.
Xiaojia had a boyfriend in college; they were deeply in love, but they eventually broke up.
Xiaojia was sad for a long time because of this, and even now her phone's lock screen password is still her college boyfriend's birthday. She said it's not that she hasn't figured it out yet, it's just that she's gotten used to it.
I don't know if Dr. Guan hasn't figured it out or has already gotten used to it.
However, both of these situations are quite unfortunate.
He wanted to comfort Dr. Guan.
So she reached out and patted the man's shoulder, lowered her chin sympathetically, and sighed.
We deeply regret this.
Guan Yue: "......"
The man turned his gaze, his eyes even more intense than before, and stared silently at the young man: "Don't you feel angry?"
“Hmm…” Pei Xi thought for a moment, “This is Dr. Guan’s past. We didn’t know each other before, right? It’s normal for you to have a past.”
Guan Yue: "......"
"I didn't feel angry, it's just..." He didn't quite know how to describe it. It was like there was a tightness in his chest, but just a little bit, and he felt a little awkward.
I can empathize with her and think that Dr. Guan must be very sorry.
In short, he summarized it into this sentence: "I just hope that Dr. Guan can get over it soon."
Guan Yue: "......"
The man shrugged, pulling his hand away from the capybara, as if rejecting its concern, and said coldly, "Stop your pity. I don't have an ex-boyfriend."
Immediately afterwards, Guan Yue got up from the sofa.
He couldn't stay any longer.
Sooner or later, I'll be driven crazy by this innocent-looking little capybara.
The capybara was completely bewildered.
Huh? There isn't one?
Why didn't Dr. Guan refute that?
So what does 0618 mean?
Or is it because you're too embarrassed to admit that you still can't get over your ex?
Hmm...
It's so hard to guess.
He decided to work on the presentation slides for a while to calm down.
He was busy with the "Tianlu Linlang" project a while ago, so he asked a retired teacher, Uncle, to take care of the elective courses at school.
Last week, my senior called to say that the students were being a bit unruly and that he was too old to control them.
So starting next week, he'll be going to class again.
However, he never noticed the students causing trouble. Although he hadn't taught many classes, the classroom was quite quiet when he did. Everyone stared at him with clear eyes, and very few people made any jokes.
How come it's so different from what my senior brother said?
Forget it, there are just too many unsolved mysteries tonight; his head is about to ache.
After preparing his presentation materials and taking a relaxing shower, he went into his bedroom.
Dr. Guan went to bed earlier than him and was now leaning against the pillow reading a foreign language magazine.
Ignoring the little capybara that had crept in, he simply closed the magazine in front of his belly and turned off the main light as well.
Only the small capybara-shaped nightlight, casting a soft glow, remained in the bedroom.
The little capybara quietly crept onto the bed and snuggled into the blankets.
Winter blankets can be really cold if you don't warm them up beforehand.
The warmth inside the blankets was centered around Dr. Guan.
The closer to the center, the higher the temperature.
The capybara was afraid of the cold, so almost instinctively it moved closer to the center and moved inwards.
He suddenly realized that much of what was written in that post was inaccurate.
Who says that getting close to someone necessarily means liking them?
It could also be that they're afraid of the cold.
It seems the content on this forum is unreliable; he shouldn't test it lightly.
"What are you doing?"
As he slowly approached Dr. Guan, the man spoke softly.
It's been discovered.
Pei Xi answered honestly, "Cold..."
Guan Yue: "......"
But perhaps Dr. Guan didn't want him to get close.
So he didn't move any closer to the man, but stayed where he was, staring at the minimalist ceiling light.
The bedroom wasn't well-lit, but you could still make out the general outline of the ceiling light, which was oval-shaped.
"Aren't you cold anymore?" Guan Yue spoke again, breaking the silence in the space.
"It's...it's alright." Although he hadn't reached the warmest area, it was enough. If he lay there a little longer, he should warm up.
"Hmm!"
Similar to several other nights, he was once again caught off guard and pulled into the man's arms.
And just like that, I unexpectedly stumbled into the warm domain of others.
Guan Yue easily wrapped his arm around the little capybara's slender waist, his fingertips pressing lightly against the slightly sunken waist.
Pei Qi felt a numbness in his waist and his whole body trembled involuntarily.
The man buried his face in the crook of his neck, his deep, straight nose sinking into the little capybara's fair neck flesh, creating a small indentation.
Although he had some doubts about the content of the post, he couldn't help but start thinking about it again.
Does this count as wanting to get closer?
The scent of cedar completely enveloped my nose, permeating every inch of the space.
Guan Yue didn't say anything, but just nestled firmly next to the little capybara, his thumb finding the hollow of its lower back and pressing down again.
Pei Xi couldn't help but gasp.
It hurts, feels numb, and itchy when I press on it.
He had a ring of itchy skin around his waist.
He's become much less allergic now; before, he might have jumped out of bed.
Her hands groped under the covers and grabbed Guan Yue's large hand that was holding her waist: "Don't... don't press anymore."
But he definitely can't beat Dr. Guan.
After all, his physique was obvious. Just in terms of height alone, Dr. Guan was almost 20 centimeters taller than him... not to mention his abs, pecs, and muscles.
Judging by his physique alone, he might think Guan Yue works in the fitness industry, because every muscle is perfectly toned, the bulges are just right, and there's no greasy feeling at all.
In layman's terms, it means having a very low body fat percentage.
The veins running along his body were almost visible to the naked eye.
No wonder he was the strongman I picked at first glance.
no......
How could he think that...?
The young man couldn't help but frown, somewhat unable to stand himself.
The man, his face still buried in the crook of the capybara's neck, remained silent. As his nose pressed against the capybara's neck, his lips brushed against the capybara's soft neck, gently inhaling.
It's the sweetness of plums.
Like a juicy plum, sweet yet refreshing.
His lips brushed against the boy's waist gently, but that didn't stop him from pressing down hard on the boy's lower back.
The capybara jerked violently, then grabbed his hand, trying to pull him away: "Ouch..."
It wasn't just pain; it was a very strange feeling that I couldn't quite describe.
"You're not meat on your bones at all." Guan Yue seemed to ignore the capybara's accusations, and instead wrapped his arms around the young man's thin waist even tighter. "Have you not been eating properly?"
"No... I ate two bowls of rice tonight," Pei Qi said softly, trying to defend herself.
Guan Yue: "Are you at work?"
That hit the nail on the head. He does eat rather casually at work, often without a fixed time. Sometimes he's too lazy to go to the cafeteria, so he just eats some bread or snacks to fill his stomach. Actually, it seems like he's always been like this, but after living with Dr. Guan, he started getting free meals.
Moreover, he has gained some weight now. When he was at his thinnest, he was like a telephone pole. When he was studying with the archaeological team in the Northwest, he would lose his balance when the wind carrying yellow sand blew by.
"I also eat at work... I've gained a little weight now," he replied sheepishly.
Guan Yue was still rubbing against his neck, using her lips.
His ears were already bright red, and now his face and neck were also stained red.
"Dr. Guan...no, this makes me...uncomfortable." The pressure on her lower back was still there, and the strange feeling returned.
"Not feeling well?" The man's lips were still sweet with the scent of plums as he mumbled a question, then said in a deep voice, "I'm not feeling well either."
"Hmm." The capybara asked earnestly, "Are you feeling unwell? Did the surgery take too long?"
"I'm not feeling well." The man's voice was hoarse as he called him by his full name, "Pei Xi."
