The sky outside the window is getting darker.
Jin Wei's IV drip was running low, and because Pei Wu pressed the call button before Jin Wei could, Jin Wei had to withdraw his outstretched hand.
Their fingertips accidentally touched, and their eyes met involuntarily.
“I’ll do it,” Pei Wu said.
"Um."
A short while later, the nurse knocked on the ward door.
"Enter."
After the nurse came in and removed the needle from Jin Wei's arm, she told him, "Get some rest and don't stay up late," before leaving the ward.
Jin Wei, who had been lying down for a long time, had a slightly wrinkled shirt on his body. His black suit pants made his long legs look even straighter. He felt a little stiff after finishing the IV drip while maintaining the same position.
He reached up and adjusted his glasses on the bridge of his nose, causing a few stray hairs to fall across his forehead.
Jin Wei is different from Pei Wu. Pei Wu doesn't usually wear glasses, only when she's working in the research lab. Jin Wei, on the other hand, always wears them, only taking them off when she sleeps.
"It's getting late, take a shower so you can rest early." As soon as Pei Wu said this, the atmosphere between them seemed to become even more awkward. Only then did she belatedly realize that her words were rather ambiguous, after all, the person in front of her was not Shen Yu Nan, whom she had been married to for two years.
"I mean... I'm going out to buy some things."
Jin Wei understood what Pei Wu meant. After a moment's thought, he parted his thin lips and said, "If... it's convenient... could you go home and get me a change of clothes?"
"Yes...yes. Is there anything else I can help you bring?"
"If possible, could you please bring me the files on my desk?"
"good."
Jin Wei's residence is not far from the private hospital, about a 30-minute round trip, which is enough time for Jin Wei to take a shower.
The summer weather was hot and humid. As soon as Pei Wu left the hospital, she felt the unique heat and humidity of midsummer, which was originally the feeling she disliked the most. However, her pleasant mood today made her ignore the sticky feeling.
Jin Wei leaned against the window in the ward, watching Pei Wu walk towards the hospital parking lot. Standing on the twelfth floor, he could only see Pei Wu's small back. But even this small, gradually receding figure held his gaze. It wasn't until Pei Wu subconsciously turned around that he hurriedly looked away and hid himself behind the curtains.
Jin Wei felt his heart pounding, and unconsciously reached out to tug at his tie. The tie was torn into a mess, and the buttons on his collar popped open, revealing his long neck.
He glanced down at his wrinkled shirt, then at the hospital gown the nurse had placed on the sofa.
The ward is designed like a small hotel suite, with a private bathroom, a small living room, and a dining area, where some relatively healthy drinks are also provided.
Jin Wei took the hospital gown prepared by the nurse and went into the bathroom.
Pei Wu quickly arrived at Jin Wei's residence based on the address given to her.
Jin Wei lives alone in a large flat in 'Beishuxing'. The interior is spacious, decorated mainly in black, and has a large floor-to-ceiling window with a great view overlooking the city's night view. At this moment, the city lights are on and the neon lights are flashing, making for a wonderful view.
Pei Wu walked straight towards the dressing room. Based on Jin Wei's description, Pei Wu successfully found a small travel bag in the dressing room's cabinet.
The shirt is in the cabinet on the right-hand side as you enter.
The tie is in the drawer under the shirts on the cabinet.
Jin Wei sent the text to Pei Wu via WeChat and quickly received a reply.
After sending him a photo, Pei Wu asked, "Is this the cabinet?"
'Um. '
A few seconds later, Jin Wei seemed to realize something and withdrew his affirmative answer. He had just finished showering, and his face was already slightly flushed. Now, even his earlobes were red.
His fingers tightened around his phone. Just as he was about to retype, Pei Wu replied with a new photo—a row of shirts—and the text, "What color shirts do you want?"
Jin Wei's closet full of shirts of various colors left Pei Wu at a loss, which is why she sent a photo to ask for advice.
While waiting for his reply, she also opened the lower drawer based on Jin Wei's WeChat message.
A variety of ties were neatly arranged in the drawer.
The shirt should be black.
After replying with an "okay," Pei Wu was about to take a picture of the tie and send it over when she paused for a moment.
The top of this cabinet holds shirts, and when you pull out the entire drawer below, you find not only ties, but also, on the very bottom, his...shorts.
