Chapter 4 How can mortals pick stars?
Zhou Ai left for a long time before Chu Yi slowly came back to his senses.
Just now, he was almost bewitched by Zhou Ai's face and took out his cell phone. The only chance to have contact with Zhou Ai was cut off by him personally.
When I opened my clenched fists, I found that my palms were full of sweat.
Chu Yi didn't dare to take any risk at all. He was afraid that once he added it, his desires would be magnified infinitely.
If you never have it, you won’t regret it.
To him, Zhou Ai was the stars, the stars that he could see by looking up.
How can a mortal reach for the stars?
After these two dressing changes, Chu Yi had no idea that he would have another chance to meet Zhou Ai.
“The most dangerous things are not the known lesions, but the signs you see but pretend they don’t exist.”
This sentence reminds Chu Yi all the time.
Reminding him of the distance between him and Zhou Ai.
No matter if the other party was just asking on a whim, or...he really just wanted to ask about the time to change the dressing.
In the end, he was the only one who couldn't escape unscathed.
Therefore, Chu Yi was clearly aware from the beginning that if he didn’t want an unfortunate ending, he shouldn’t have had a beginning.

"Why are you still depressed after changing the medicine?" Xu Yang looked at Zhou Ai lying on the sofa without saying a word, and couldn't help but speak.
"Brother Yang, you say..." Zhou Ai turned off the phone screen for countless times, biting her lower lip as she leaned closer to Xu Yang and lowered her voice, "Do you believe in love at first sight?"
"love at first sight!?"
Xu Yang's voice suddenly rose, making a sharp roar like a groundhog. The next second, he looked around like a thief to see if the environment was safe.
"You...you...don't tell me? You want to fall in love?" Xu Yang still looked like a thief, lowered his voice and put his head in front of Zhou Ai.
"Maybe." Zhou Ai was deflated and threw his phone aside. He leaned his head back on the sofa pillow with a look of self-abandonment.
"Tsk. How can there be so much love at first sight? In my opinion~" Xu Yang slammed the documents in his hand on the table, and said slowly to Zhou Ai who closed her eyes and rested, "It's all about lust at first sight."
Are you attracted by her beauty?
There are many good-looking people in the entertainment industry. Zhou Ai has seen at least five thousand of them, even if she has not seen ten thousand.
But in his opinion, Chu Yi's beauty is a beauty that touches the soul.
Are those eyes?
Were those eyes that he seemed to have seen before?
Zhou Ai took a deep breath and picked up the mobile phone that he had casually thrown on the sofa. The only person he followed on his Weibo account was an account called "π".
That was his first fan account when he just debuted.
Including the current fan nickname "Pi" comes from here,
The site was last updated three years ago.
Zhou Ai thought of those eyes again, the only eyes left behind by the mask and hat.
At that time, his career had just started, he didn't have many fans, and there were very few people who came to pick him up at the airport.
But what he remembers most clearly is that there is always a fan who covers himself more tightly than he does.
He was wearing a black hat and a black mask, and he didn't talk to him or ask for his autograph. He just stood quietly not far away, holding a camera and taking pictures of him.
At that time, Xu Yang even suggested that this mysterious fan might be a sasaeng fan. Zhou Ai curled his lips in silence. He had never seen a sasaeng fan so distant. Besides, he was so obscure at the time, he had no idea who to sell the photos to.
Once, Zhou Ai took on an event at the last minute. When he arrived at the airport, he found that the "black hat guy" was still waiting for him as usual.
They didn't get close to each other, nor did they talk, and this happened so often that Zhou Ai began to doubt her life.
"Do you want to eat it?" Zhou Ai handed over the candy he took out of his bag, but the other party just held the camera and stared at him blankly without saying a word.
He once suspected that the brother in front of him was a mute.
The mute brother continued to perform steadily. Without saying a word, he reached out and took the candy from Zhou Ai's hand and put it into his bag without saying a "thank you".
Later, Xu Yang sent the photos taken by the account "π" to Zhou Ai. At first glance, he was very sure that these were taken by "Dumb Brother".
It was also at that time that Zhou Ai followed this account, but the other party was as aloof as ever and didn't even click on the original owner's reply.
I have never missed any of Zhou Ai's activities, and I have always taken beautiful photos of her at every event, including the filters that she likes.
Until Zhou Ai became completely famous three years ago, "π" never updated a photo again.
"Still reading?" Xu Yang leaned over to the phone and took a look.
"Maybe he has already run away." After reading it, he did not forget to add another stab.
"Get lost." Zhou Ai turned off the screen and leaned back on the sofa cushion. He closed his eyes but without warning thought of Chu Yi's eyes again.

Chu Yi had just finished an all-night shift and was packing up to leave when he received a call from Du Ruoyin.
"Mother."
"Come home this weekend. It's your grandfather's birthday. Be good."
"OK."
After a few brief words, the other party hung up the phone. Chu Yi paused and then returned to normal, as if he was used to it.
I calmly packed my things, changed out of my work clothes, and drove home as usual.
Chu Yi's life, to use his friend Qi Yuan's classic words, can be described as "a pool of stagnant water."
The problem is that Chu Yi, trapped in this vortex of stagnant water, never thought of struggling at all.
The apartment Chu Yi bought was a bit far from the hospital, so sometimes after finishing his night shift he would go to his cousin Cheng Yingzhi's house to take a nap.
The other party had been abroad for several years. Before going abroad, he asked him to go to his home to water the flowers when he had nothing to do. As a result, Chu Yi found that it was indeed close to his work in the hospital, so he went straight in and felt at ease to take a nap there from time to time after finishing his night shift.
As soon as I got home, Cheng Yingzhi called me.
"I seriously doubt you have surveillance cameras installed at home. Your phone rang exactly as I arrived at your house."
Cheng Yingzhi's laughter came from the phone, "You think too much."
"What's the matter?" Chu Yi took out some clothes from his bag and asked casually.
"Didn't your mother tell you?" the other party asked back.
Chu Yi paused, "Grandpa's birthday?"
"Bing go ~ I'll be back on Friday."
"If you tell me, I won't pick you up at the airport."
"You have no conscience. You've lived in my house for so long and you don't even pay the rent."
"Let's talk about it later. Remind me when you come back." Chu Yi hung up the phone and just wanted to take a shower and go to bed quickly.
Just as I was about to turn off the screen, a reminder message from Weibo popped up at the top of the phone screen.
[Surprise! Zhou Ai officially announces tour dates again after stage accident!]
His fingertips lingered on the screen for a moment of hesitation, but he still clicked on the content. Chu Yi glanced at the time and location of the next tour, and mentally calculated when Zhou Ai's forehead stitches would be removed.
It’s okay, I can rest for half a month after the stitches are removed.
He looked down again and found that he had accidentally taken something out of the bag when he took out his clothes. When he bent down to pick it up, he found that it was the ticket for Zhou Ai's last concert, the ticket for the concert where the accident happened.
It was also the only concert he missed, but unexpectedly, he would meet Zhou Ai in the hospital by chance.
