Shi Jin fell ill and had a sudden high fever. Lian Jun was so anxious that he invited all the best doctors in the sanatorium to come.
While the doctors were treating Shi Jin, Lian Jun found Shi Weichong to find out why Shi Jin became like this. After hearing that Shi Jin almost shot Xu Jie and froze outside for a night, his eyes darkened.
"After more than ten hours of flying and an afternoon of driving, I didn't have time to rest or eat, and then I sat outside all night." He clenched his fingers, suppressed the emotions in his heart, and said, "I really should have come earlier... Why did he want to kill Xu Jie? What did Xu Jie do?"
Shi Weichong now felt that he was crazy last night. He actually let Shi Jin sit outside all night. After a moment of silence, he replied: "Probably... to wake me up. My mother is not crazy, she is just pretending."
So it was because of these brothers again.
Lian Jun lowered his eyes to hide the coldness in his eyes. After a few seconds, he looked at Shi Weichong and said, "Please go back, Shi Jin needs to rest."
Shi Weichong frowned: "Lian Jun."
Lian Jun blocked the door and said, "Mr. Shi, in ten days, I will ask the nursing home to remove your room here and cancel all your extra permissions. You can still visit your mother, but you must follow the rules of the nursing home and set a time limit every month. If you have any objection to this matter, then I will transfer Xu Jie back to the country and send her to where she should go."
After returning to the country, where else should Xu Jie go except prison?
Shi Weichong closed his eyes and said in a slow voice: "Lian Jun, I know you are angry, but..."
"I'm not angry." Lian Jun interrupted him, his eyes were indeed calm, and his tone did not even fluctuate much. "I just don't like it. Maybe you think it's okay for Shi Jin to be wronged, but I don't want to see him crying again. I'm sorry, I'm just a selfish person. For me, everything must give way to Shi Jin. He has already forgiven you brothers, so don't force him to forgive your mother."
Shi Weichong's eyes dimmed, and he wanted to explain that he didn't want Shi Jin to forgive his mother, but looking at Lian Jun's face, he couldn't say anything.
He was a failed brother, and Lian Jun was obviously a very competent and excellent partner. In front of the other party, he could not say anything to refute or explain.
"I understand." He could only compromise in the end, looking at the closed door behind Lian Jun, and said, "I will come to visit Xiao Jin later... I'm sorry, I didn't take good care of him."
Lian Jun watched him leave, and his face, which had barely kept a negative emotion, slowly sank. He looked through the window in the corridor at the deepest part of the nursing home, his lips pulled down, and he turned back to the room.
...
Although Shi Jin seemed to have a very high fever in the eyes of outsiders, he was actually sleeping very comfortably. He didn't feel uncomfortable because of the heat in his body, but felt warm, as if he was back in his mother's belly.
He didn't know how long it had passed, but the warmth slowly faded away, and when he regained consciousness, he subconsciously moved his limbs, and immediately felt his body being embraced in a warm embrace, followed by a soothing pat on his back.
This feeling of being cherished was too familiar, and his heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and he opened his eyes.
In front of him was Lian Jun's shoulder and neck with a prominent collarbone. Their limbs were overlapped under the quilt, and their body temperatures were exchanged, comfortable and warm.
This was not a dream.
He stretched out his arms to hug Lian Jun's waist, raised his head to find the position of Lian Jun's Adam's apple, opened his mouth and bit it.
Lian Jun's body tensed instantly, and his Adam's apple rolled instinctively, bringing out a vague low hum. He pressed Shi Jin's body deeper into his arms, rubbed his hair, and asked softly, "Are you awake? Eat something before you go back to sleep."
It was all true.
Shi Jin loosened his teeth, but did not look up at Lian Jun's face. Instead, he looked at the teeth marks on Lian Jun's skin, and licked it with his tongue, then kissed all the way to the side of his neck where he could feel his pulse.
"Don't make trouble." Lian Jun's voice became hoarse, and he held his head, "Be good." Shi Jin
didn't want to be good at all. He just wanted to bite the person in front of him well, and it would be best if he could bite this person so hard that he cried out in pain, so as to verify that this person really came back, and it was not a dream he had.
He rubbed his body down and moved towards his collarbone.
"Why did you cry before?" Lian Jun suddenly asked, and rubbed his hair softly again.
Shi Jin paused, thinking of the past, and instinctively wanted to check the progress bar in his mind, but of course he saw nothing. He instantly lost his strength, curled up in Lian Jun's arms, and didn't move for a long time, then stretched out his hands to tighten Lian Jun's body, clinging to him tightly, as if he wanted to embed him into his body.
Lian Jun noticed his uneasiness, frowned, hugged him tighter, and comforted him: "I'm here, it's okay."
"...Don't leave me again in the future." Shi Jin finally spoke, resting his forehead on his chest, "It's been too long...If you don't come back, I'll find someone else."
"No." Lian Jun lowered his voice and gently hit his back, then eased off, gently smoothed it, and said apologetically, "I'm sorry...I was going to pick you up after your final exams, but the flight was delayed. After returning to China, I heard that you were here, so I had to hurry up to complete the procedures and rush over." Shi Jin softened
his heart and rubbed his chest: "It's okay, but there must not be a next time."
"Well, there won't be a next time." Lian Jun promised, lowering his head and kissing the top of his head, "I promise."
...
Shi Jin's fever subsided after a good sleep, but although his physical illness recovered quickly, the "illness" in his heart became worse. He became very listless, often distracted, silent for a long time, and covered his head and ears very frequently. He was also very clingy to Lian Jun, almost to the point that if Lian Jun just went to the toilet, he had to wait at the door.
Shi Weichong frowned and was very worried. He wanted to ask the psychiatrist at the nursing home to check on Shi Jin. Lian Jun refused. He knew that Shi Jin was not sick. Shi Jin was just too tired and needed to rest for a while.
This silence lasted for a week. During this period, under Lian Jun's care, Shi Jin went to bed and
got up on time every day. He took a walk in the nursing home in the morning, took a nap and played mahjong in the afternoon, and watched a movie in the evening. His days were very regular and leisurely. Lian Jun tried his best to stay within Shi Jin's sight at all times. When he could hug Shi Jin, he would not just hold hands. When they could lean against each other, they would never sit apart. He was more clingy than Shi Jin. He also re-applied for a game account, bought back the set of couple skins that matched Shi Jin, and under Shi Jin's nose, re-bound their accounts to a partner relationship.
The moment the prompt sound of successful binding sounded, Shi Jin smiled, a very shallow smile. Lian Jun's eyes warmed up when he saw this. He raised his arms to hold his shoulders and tilted his head to kiss the corner of his raised mouth.
After sticking together for a week, Shi Jin finally regained some spirits. He seemed to have finally come out of some kind of emotion. He started to talk more and began to take the initiative to drag Lian Jun around the nursing home. He smiled more and more.
On the day when the ten-day deadline was up, Shi Jin took the initiative to leave Lian Jun and stood in front of the building at the deepest part of the nursing home.
After Shi Weichong arranged Xu Jie's care and came out of the building, he saw Shi Jin standing outside, was stunned for a moment, quickly approached, looked around, and asked: "Why are you here? Isn't Lian Jun with you?"
"He's helping me pack my luggage. I bought too many small things in the town before, and the suitcase can't fit them all, so he's trying to streamline it." Shi Jin was embarrassed to answer. He glanced at the building behind him and asked, "What are your plans after returning to City B?"
Shi Weichong retracted his gaze and looked at him. When he met his eyes that had regained their spirit, he felt relieved and replied, "I'm going to visit my grandfather's first. I heard that they've had a hard time these past two years."
After Xu Jie was sent here, Lian Jun found a way to bail Xu Chuan out of prison. In the past two years, Xu Chuan has caused a lot of trouble for Xu Jie's mother's family. With the chaos caused by outsiders and the loss of Ruixing's support, the Xu family is indeed very sad now.
Shi Jin frowned and couldn't help but persuade him: "Brother, you live for yourself, don't..."
Shi Wei Chong suddenly came forward and hugged him. Shi Jin
was stunned, then frowned even more tightly, raised his hands to hug him back and patted him gently, saying: "I don't want to interfere with your life, but those people in the Xu family really..."
"I understand." Shi Weichong let him go, with a rare relaxed and satisfied expression on his face in the past few years. "I won't care about them. You can only eat as much as you can. The Xu family has relied on the help of others for these years. The foundation has long been unstable. It's time to settle down. I said I wanted to go and see, just as a grandson who hasn't been back for a long time, I want to see my elderly grandparents. I won't care about the Xu family's business. It's not my business." Shi Jin was
relieved to hear that, but he felt that he was too controlling and said, "In fact, if you really want to do something, it's your freedom. Just do it if you want to. Don't have any psychological burden. Anyway...anyway, just take care of yourself. Remember not to let those others influence you again."
Be fine.
This is probably the most beautiful sentence Shi Weichong has ever heard in his life. He has many family members, some of whom care about him, some of whom don't, but without exception, each of them wants something from him, especially the Xu family... and his mother.
He gave everything for those people, but in the end, it was this younger brother whom he had hurt the most who simply hoped that he could be well and live well for himself.
"Thank you." He couldn't help but thank him again, raising his hand to touch Shi Jin's head. And sorry. He added in his heart. Thank you for your forgiveness, sorry for the past debts and confusion.
"What are you thanking me for... Really, don't touch my head, let's go, pack your luggage quickly, otherwise you won't be able to catch the plane." Shi Jin tilted his head and shook off his hand, muttered in disgust, turned around and motioned him to hurry up.
Shi Weichong smiled and followed him.
The two talked as they walked away, their shadows lengthened by the sunlight, and as they walked forward, neither of them looked back at the small building behind them.
...
After returning to City B, Lian Jun took Shi Jin back to Wanpu Garden. After two months of hard work, Wanpu Garden... was still a little bare, and it became deserted again - the workers had all gone home for the New Year holiday.
The two got out of the taxi, Lian Jun took the suitcase out of the trunk, took Shi Jin to the gate of the villa area, used the access card to open the small door that had been repaired next to it, and led him in. Shi
Jin took a special look in the direction of the guardhouse, and saw that the gate there was closed and the windows were all locked. He withdrew his gaze with a little regret - it seemed that the old man Zhang who was guarding the site had also gone home for the New Year holiday.
Lian Jun caught his gaze and thought he was looking at the bare land on the roadside, and explained: "Most of the facilities in the community have been completed, only the greening is still empty. Because it is winter, the land is frozen by snow and water, and it has become very hard, which is not suitable for greening, so it has been postponed and will be continued in the spring after the New Year."
Shi Jin looked at the land on the roadside and saw that it did look hard, and nodded to show that he understood.
"The house has been rearranged, and there are only a few small items left. You can see what is missing later, and we will go to buy them together tomorrow. By the way, I heard that you got your driver's license, so I ordered a car for you. It was delivered a few days ago and is parked in the garage. You can take a look later. If you don’t like it, we can change it." Shi
Jin couldn't help but look sideways at him.
Lian Jun's eyes relaxed, with a little joy of finally settling down, and continued to talk about the situation at home: "I haven't hired a long-term nanny or chef for the time being. People like this must be carefully selected. If you don't like them, it's okay not to have them. If I just want to take care of you, I should be able to do it myself."
"Lian Jun." Shi Jin called him softly.
"Hmm?" Lian Jun turned his head to look over, his eyes were gentle and warm, and his eyes were full of hope and expectation for the future life.
Very good-looking, Lian Jun who is so relaxed and looking forward to the future is very good-looking.
Shi Jin tightened his hand with Lian Jun, leaned over and kissed his cheek, and said, "We're going home."
Lian Jun was stunned, then smiled and nodded, "Yes, we're going home."
...
Compared to Shi Jin, Lian Jun is actually more like a spoiled young master. He has been used to being taken care of since he was a child. Someone takes care of his food, clothing, housing and transportation. If he wants something or wants to do something, he only needs to ask a word. In the first twenty years of his life, he had never been exposed to housework such as washing clothes and cooking.
But after being separated for nearly a year, Shi Jin was shocked to find that Lian Jun suddenly became all-rounder in housework.
After returning to the villa, Lian Jun naturally went to the kitchen to boil a pot of water, and then took Shi Jin to walk around the decorated villa while the water was boiling.
At this time, Shi Jin didn't realize anything. After all, boiling water is something that everyone can do, and his attention was all on the decorated villa, so he didn't have the mind to think about anything else.
After touring the villa and boiling the water, Lian Jun made two cups of hot milk tea, and he and Shi Jin drank one cup each to warm up their bodies. Shi Jin still didn't find anything wrong. Making milk tea is also very simple, and it's nothing strange if you can do it.
Then, something magical happened to Shi Jin.
Lian Jun took the empty milk tea cup away, put it in the sink and washed it skillfully and naturally, then he led his son into the master bedroom on the second floor, feeling that something was wrong but nothing seemed to be wrong, took out his pajamas from the closet, and took him to the bathroom.
Shi Jin took a bath in a daze, and when he pushed the door open, he was shocked to find that Lian Jun was actually making the bed and putting on a quilt! He watched Lian Jun standing by the bed, pinching a corner of the quilt with his slender and beautiful fingers, shaking it gently to make it even, zipping it up, and then spreading it on the bed. After spreading it, he even adjusted the position of the five-pointed star pillow that had returned to the arena! Shi
Jin: "..."
Lian Jun, the former leader of a violent organization, a big boss who never knew what housework was... He knew how to put on a quilt, and he also knew how to arrange the pillow in a beautiful shape.
Shi Jin felt that he might have hallucinated, he raised his hand and rubbed his eyes, trying to sober himself up.
Lian Jun noticed that he had come out, and hurriedly put down the pillow and walked over, touching his wet hair, frowning and saying, "Why don't you blow dry your hair before you come out." After that, he pushed him to sit on the bed, went to the bathroom to find the hair dryer, walked out and plugged it into the socket at the head of the bed, and blew his hair for him.
The warm wind blew gently, and the slender fingers gently massaged his scalp. Shi Jin, who had just finished taking a shower, couldn't help but feel sleepy. The flight of more than ten hours was still too tiring. He covered his mouth and yawned, and leaned against Lian Jun unconsciously, feeling more and more that he was dreaming.
...
Shi Jin was awakened by Lian Jun. He blinked in confusion, looked at Lian Jun who had changed into home clothes, twitched his nose, and said, "I smell the aroma of beef."
Lian Jun was amused by his sleepy look, bent down and kissed him, reached out and dug him out of the bed, and said, "Sleep after dinner, it's already dark."
"Is it dark?" Shi Jin turned his head to look out the window. Seeing that it was indeed dark, he finally woke up. With the help of Lian Jun, he got out of bed, yawned and asked, "Did you order takeout? Beef rice?"
Lian Jun did not answer. He watched him wash up and then led him to the restaurant. He sat him down at the dining table and said, "Try it. Tell me if you don't like it." Shi
Jin looked at the three dishes and one soup on the table, which were delicious. He smelled the aroma of the food and his stomach was immediately awakened. He hurriedly picked up the chopsticks and picked up a piece of tomato beef brisket and put it into his mouth. After tasting it carefully and swallowing it, he squinted his eyes in enjoyment and said, "The taste is so rich... delicious! Where did you order the takeout? It's really good."
"Try something else." Lian Jun still didn't answer and gestured to several other dishes.
Shi Jin was indeed hungry, and upon hearing this, he quickly tasted the dishes one by one, becoming more and more satisfied as he ate. Not to mention the beef brisket with tomatoes, the other two dishes, the bamboo shoots and shrimp slices were fresh and fragrant, the blanched choy sum was tender and sweet, and the mushroom and tofu soup, which looked like nothing special, tasted so delicious that he wanted to swallow his tongue. As he tasted the food, he stopped talking and picked up the rice that was already in front of him and started eating.
"Eat slowly." Lian Jun poured him a glass of water and placed it next to him, contentedly admiring the way he ate. Shi
Jin's belly soon became round, and most of the three dishes and one soup on the table, which were very filling, went into his stomach. Lian Jun was used to chewing slowly and eating only until he was 80% full, so when Shi Jin finished eating and collapsed on the chair, there was still half of the rice in his bowl. Shi Jin
felt embarrassed and said, "This dish is so delicious..."
"Then I'll make it for you tomorrow. What else do you want to eat?" Lian Jun took out a tissue and leaned over to wipe his mouth,
then asked naturally. Shi Jin replied without thinking, "I also want to eat boiled pork slices. I ate too much nutrition meals in the sanatorium and my mouth is tasteless. I just want to eat some home-cooked dishes and spicy chicken nuggets. I want to eat spicy food now... Wait, who did you say made this dish?" He finally reacted, sat up straight and looked at Lian Jun in disbelief.
Lian Jun raised the corners of his mouth.
"You, you..." Shi Jin was stunned. He looked at the half-empty plates on the table, and then at Lian Jun's slender and beautiful hands that were totally out of place in the kitchen. His mouth widened a little, and after a while he said, "Are you possessed by some strange thing? You clearly couldn't even fry an egg before you left!"
It is a very satisfying and happy thing that your lover likes the dishes you cook. Lian Jun smiled and replied, "During this time away, I took the time to learn a little. I can't feed you burnt eggs again. You used to take care of me, and now I'll take care of you." Shi Jin
was a little frustrated: "Did you just learn a little?" You're as good as the old chefs outside!
Lian Jun also felt a little strange when he said this, and replied: "It is true that I only learned a little. In fact, I was also surprised that after the initial confusion, I could cook almost all the dishes in one try."
Shi Jin quickly realized something, his expression became strange, and he asked: "You...you started to learn to cook formally, was it before your body was completely recovered, or after..."
This question was very strange, and Shi Jin's expression was too strange. The smile on Lian Jun's face fell, he looked at him deeply, and replied: "After that. Before using the last medicine, I just fried a plate of roasted eggplant." Shi
Jin: "..." That's right, it smells like a reward, but why did Lian Jun's reward fall in such a strange place?
He glanced at Lian Jun's body, which was not much fatter, and wanted to curse God - why, if you want to give rewards, why don't you give them to a more powerful place? Lian Jun is weak, you should make his body stronger! What's the point of lighting up his cooking skills!
No, it seems to be useful, you can only get fat if you eat well.
"You...you should eat more, eat more." Shi Jin suddenly felt a little tired, and a guilty feeling for taking Lian Jun's reward, "I...I will fatten you up." It's a compensation for you.
Lian Jun looked at him again calmly, and seeing that he looked guilty and distressed, his heart softened, and he reached out and touched his head.
Never mind, it doesn't matter what happens, as long as Shi Jin is still here.
...
After dinner, Lian Jun didn't let Shi Jin interfere. He cleaned the table, washed the dishes, wiped the countertop, and put the grains into the porridge cooker in advance, set the timer for the porridge cooker, and prepared to eat grain porridge for breakfast tomorrow.
Shi Jin followed him like a little tail, watching him busying around. After all the magic and unreality in his heart, he felt a deep heartache and asked, "You...are you also very fast in learning to do housework..." What kind of rewards did the progress bar give to Lian Jun to make Lian Jun an expert in housework and cooking...
Lian Jun looked back at him, washed his hands, and said, "Don't think too much. I'm just enjoying the life of an ordinary person. I'm very happy to do this for you." Shi Jin
could understand his feelings, but still felt uncomfortable. He grabbed his hand and helped him wipe off the water droplets on it, and said : "Then let's do it together. Housework is something that two people should share. I will feel guilty if you don't let me help."
Lian Jun held his hand in return, curled the corners of his mouth slightly, kissed him on the side, and said, "Okay, then let's go to the supermarket to buy groceries together tomorrow?" Shi Jin
looked at his gentle smile, and remembered that he had to be careful no matter where he went in the past. His mood warmed up and he nodded: "Okay." There's nothing wrong with it. Compared to the boss of an organization who is tightly protected by everyone, he really hopes that Lian Jun can be an ordinary person who can do whatever he wants.
Ordinary people do need some fireworks, but the most important thing is that Lian Jun is healthy now and will definitely be healthy in the future.
"We still have to prepare some New Year's goods. We'd better make a shopping list in advance and buy everything at once to avoid running back and forth." Shi Jin quickly adjusted his mood and buried his head in the calculations, "Spring Festival couplets, small lanterns, candies, snacks... There are still a few storage boxes missing in the cloakroom, a few hooks in the kitchen, and there seems to be no plastic wrap in the refrigerator..."
Lian Jun listened to his muttering and watched him concentrate on thinking about what else was missing at home. I couldn't help but put my arms around him, rubbed his forehead with my chin, looked at the kitchen which finally had a bit of life and was no longer deserted, and sighed with satisfaction: "Shi Jin, I'm very happy."
Shi Jin stopped talking, looked up at him, raised his arms to hug him back, buried his head and rubbed his shoulders, and said: "Me too." Of course, it would be great if everyone could be here... and Xiao Si.
