Chapter 57 "From now on, I'll sleep holding you."...
Pei Xi was stumped again by the question.
He was still wondering if he had angina.
However, the doctor diagnosed him with suspected love-struck disorder.
Now it was his turn to be speechless.
After thinking for a long time, he said, seemingly understanding but not quite, "Is...that so?"
Guan Yue: "........."
"I don't know either..." The young man was very honest, his round eyes sparkling, making him hard to ignore even in such a dim environment. "I have no experience liking anyone."
"Well, let's just say that."
Guan Yue: "........."
There's no such thing as 'just consider' in this kind of thing.
"But I don't know." The capybara felt that liking someone was a very serious and solemn emotion, and he didn't want to lie to anyone.
Guan Yue: "That means I don't know."
Never mind, at least I don't know.
It's not that I don't like it.
Pei Qi looked at the man with bright, sparkling eyes, a little nervous: "If I don't know... would you still be willing to hold me while we sleep?"
The man's eyes were deep and he stared at him.
He couldn't see clearly, so he couldn't understand it either.
They assumed it meant he was unwilling.
He couldn't do anything about it even if he didn't want to.
There are many things he can't control.
The capybara shrank back, trying to get out of the man's arms: "It's okay if you don't want to."
Um.
That stinky capybara is laughing again.
Although the light in the bedroom was not strong, Guan Yue couldn't see clearly whether the little capybara had two more dimples on its face.
But he could tell from his tone of voice.
This stinky capybara is laughing again when it's sad.
He didn't let the capybara leave his embrace; instead, he held the young man even tighter in his arms.
Pei Xi's head was pressed against two well-developed pectoral muscles, making it hard for him to breathe: "Ugh..."
Guan Yue: "Can you stop always shrinking back?"
"Can't you just cry when you're sad and laugh when you're happy? Why force a smile?"
Pei Qi felt as if he had been exposed.
He didn't know when he developed this habit.
When he was very young, he cried and begged Jiang Shulin not to leave, but it was no use.
He later discovered that crying was completely useless.
Laughter can at least make the people around you happier and prevent them from being affected by your laughter.
"Hmm..."
The warm and overwhelming embrace completely wrapped the little capybara.
My nose was filled with the scent of cedar.
He didn't even have room to open his mouth and speak.
Because of a single lip, the fabric on the man's chest was drawn in.
"I'm not unwilling, I'll hold you while I sleep from now on."
For some reason, Pei Qi felt as if a warm beam of light had suddenly entered her heart, which had felt empty for several days.
It was filled up instantly.
The young man struggled to free the round head from his chest, his cheeks flushed.
It seemed like she wanted to say something but couldn't, stammering and her eyes were wet.
"From now on, you'll have to hold me while you sleep." After saying that, he pressed his face, which he had finally managed to lift, back down and buried it in the man's firm but not hard chest muscles.
He was actually happy, but for some reason his eyes were sore.
"Okay." The man agreed, his brow furrowing slightly as he placed his hand on the back of the young man's head.
The knuckles ran through the young man's soft, black hair.
"I have problems too." He could never control his bad temper, which made the capybara, which already lacked a sense of security, want to run away. "I'm sorry."
The sudden apology left the capybara somewhat bewildered.
"Hmm..."
Guan Yue: "It won't happen again."
Pei Xi didn't dare to raise his head. His heart was a little sore, and he was worried about what would happen if he raised his head and started crying in front of Dr. Guan.
So he just shook his head and snuggled closer to the man: "It's okay..."
The man kissed the crown of his head.
The sweet scent of plums tinged my lips.
Guan Yue: "Does your back hurt?"
Pei Xi: "It doesn't hurt."
Guan Yue: "Go to sleep. I'll take you to work tomorrow."
"Okay..." He didn't know how he had inexplicably fainted.
In short, it was already morning when I woke up again.
Dr. Guan kindly told him that he had checked his lower back and thankfully, there were no bruises.
But... the thought of Dr. Guan staring at my waist while I was sleeping made me feel a little strange...
My ears burned with embarrassment.
Then Dr. Guan made breakfast and lunch and took him to work.
But lately, the man has been really busy. He almost never comes home on time at night, and when he does come home, he has to have meetings in the study.
Even under these circumstances, Dr. Guan still gets up forty minutes earlier every day to make him a lunchbox.
And the dishes are different every day.
For example, at noon today, Dr. Guan made him scrambled eggs with tomatoes and braised pork.
Su Mo's girlfriend recently came to He City on vacation, and he has been enjoying her lovingly prepared bento boxes lately.
At noon, the two ate together at a small table in the tea room.
"Dr. Guan is truly a master of all trades! He can remove an appendix and make scrambled eggs with tomatoes..." Su Mo looked at the food in his junior brother's bowl, his mouth watering. "Let your senior brother try this braised pork. It looks delicious."
Pei Qi generously pushed the lunchbox over: "You take it."
Su Mo ate several pieces without hesitation.
The phone screen will light up at this point.
It was a message from Guan Yue.
Chef Guan: [Have you had lunch yet?]
Chef Guan: [I just got off the operating table.]
Seven: [Eating (o^^o)]
Seven: [My senior said your braised pork was delicious.]
He also sent a photo of Su Mo giving a thumbs-up to the camera.
Chef Guan: [And you?]
Seven: [Me?]
He was momentarily stunned.
Seven: [I also think it's delicious.]
Chef Guan: [Anything else?]
besides?
Pei Xi was stunned.
Seven: [Image of Kapibala with a big question mark above his head.]
Chef Guan: [I didn't want to see him give a thumbs up.]
Pei Xi felt that she should have understood.
So I took a close-up photo of myself with my thumb up in front of the rear camera on my phone and posted it.
Seven: [Photo (.jpg)]
Seven: [Delicious o(^_^)o]
Chef Guan: 【。。。】
He had just come off the operating table and was still walking on the road, not yet at the cafeteria.
The man lowered his neck, held the computer in his hands, and typed a few words on the keyboard.
It was deleted again.
They hit it again.
My fingertips are inexplicably trembling.
It was as if he had made a huge decision before pressing the send button.
Lu Dong, who was standing nearby, noticed this and looked up in shock: "Wait... Senior, you don't shake when you hold a scalpel, so why is your phone shaking?"
The man abruptly turned off the screen, stuffed his phone back into his pocket, and said calmly, "I stood for too long after the surgery, so I'm probably a little hypoglycemic now."
Lu Dong took it seriously and asked very kindly, "Ah, are you alright? Do you want me to go buy a bottle of sugar water? You can rest here for a while."
The main reason is that he has worked with his genius senior brother for so long, and no matter how difficult the surgery or how complicated the situation, he has never seen his senior brother's hands tremble.
"No need, we'll be at the cafeteria soon." The man remained completely calm and composed.
Lü Dongyi: "Are you really alright?"
Guan Yue: "Mm."
"Are you alright, Xiaoqi?" Su Mo, who was engrossed in eating, had just raised his head when he saw his junior brother's face was flushed red. Just a moment ago, the junior brother's face had been perfectly normal, so why was it so red now? "Why is your face so red?"
If you add a fake beard, it'll look like a chibi version of Guan Yu.
"N-nothing...it's nothing." The young man suddenly put down his phone, pressed the back of his hand to his burning cheek, and tried to cool it down manually. "I suddenly feel a little hot."
"So suddenly?" To ensure the preservation of the ancient books, the studio maintains a constant temperature and humidity throughout the year, so there is no possibility of it suddenly getting hot.
Besides, it's only early December now.
"It's okay, it's okay..." The little capybara squeezed its cheeks with both hands, its mouth pursed up.
My brain is still a bit malfunctioning; it needs to reload for a while.
"Shall I get you a glass of ice water to help you cool down?" Su Mo stood up.
"Thank you, senior brother..." The little capybara was still dazed, its eyes unfocused.
A few seconds later, my brain finally reached 80-90% capacity.
He picked up the phone he had just tossed on the table, pursed his lips, held his breath, and unlocked the screen.
Open WeChat.
Open the chat box with Chef Guan.
A line of white bubbles came into his view again.
Chef Guan: [I want to see you, to see your face.]
It seems I wasn't seeing things.
It wasn't that Dr. Guan made a mistake.
If it was a typo, it should have been noticed by now.
They'll probably retract it or explain that they mistyped it.
So... Dr. Guan didn't make a mistake.
Dr. Guan said she wanted to see him, but also wanted to see his face.
What does this mean?
That's weird.
The little capybara's ears were still burning hot.
So you want him to take a selfie?
The young man swallowed hard and stood up abruptly: "Senior, I'm going to the restroom."
After saying that, without waiting for Su Mo's reaction or reply, she turned her head and left.
Su Mo, who had just added ice to his cup, was left bewildered in the tea room.
Pei Xi did not go to the toilet.
It's probably even harder to take pictures while squatting in the toilet.
And the lighting was poor.
After thinking it over, he climbed down the old stairs to a flower bed downstairs in his workplace.
Sunbathing...
The sun is quite strong today...
My mind temporarily retreated for a few seconds, but eventually I remembered the main issue.
I'm still a little embarrassed.
He never sent selfies to anyone and rarely took photos.
Selfies are almost nonexistent; at most, there are some group photos taken with friends.
The little capybara stood in the sun, sunbathing for quite a while.
The rays of sunlight warmed his hair.
Half a minute later, the little capybara, which had been squatting by the bushes, suddenly stood up.
I walked straight towards the old building of my workplace.
After Guan Yue finished getting his food, he went straight to sit in the dining chair.
Lu Dong hurriedly handed him chopsticks, saying, "Eat quickly, don't faint."
The man took the chopsticks but didn't touch them, staring intently at his black-screened phone.
The next instant, the phone screen lit up.
A pop-up window appears after unlocking.
A small capybara: [Photo.jpg]
