Chapter 31 Chapter 31 The young couple went to Haicheng to play
In the following days, Pei Shuyu's life returned to normal.
With day after day of training, the hand injury gradually recovered, scabs formed, and slowly fell off.
Lu Hean also gave him an ointment, and after the examination, there was no scar ointment on his hands.
As time passed, the two of them were already halfway through their one-month contract.
In recent days, Pei Shuyu has experienced what torture is.
I have to train from Monday to Friday, and go out with Lu Hean on Saturdays and Sundays.
During the day, Lu Hean followed him like a little tail and often took him to take pictures.
They were still very affectionate at night, and occasionally he would even try to get Pei Shuyu to move out and live with him.
Pei Shuyu refused.
The assessments were approaching, and he was very busy. The weekly exams required him to train every day, so Pei Shuyu insisted on staying in the dormitory.
Lu Hean didn't say much, but every day at noon after Pei Shuyu finished training, he would appear in Sevan on time with the meals he made himself.
Although Pei Shuyu tactfully told him several times that he didn't need to send it to him, it was of no use.
Pei Shuyu always had to brave the inquiring gazes of his teammates and walk towards Lu Hean. It was okay if he wasn't familiar with them, like he was with Xiao Qingyang and Yu Wei, who were somewhat familiar with each other.
It is inevitable that you will be investigated.
"Shu Yu, why do you ask your cousin to deliver food every day?" Yu Wei was the most curious. After Lu Hean came to deliver food for several days in a row, he finally couldn't help asking.
Xiao Qingyang had sharp ears and immediately came over upon hearing the voice. "Yeah, yeah, I see this guy has been coming over for several days straight. Even if he's my cousin, he's so attentive. Doesn't he have his own things to do?"
Pei Shuyu was silent for a moment, pretending not to hear. "Hey, are we going to take the doubles combat test that afternoon?"
"Stop changing the subject."
Yu Wei and Xiao Qingyang said in unison.
Seeing he couldn't dodge it, Pei Shuyu casually said, "He's fallen in love with someone recently and wants to cook to please her, so he's using me as a practice."
Pei Shuyu looked like an honest man and was very trustworthy, so Yu Wei believed him without thinking too much.
Xiao Qingyang said "Oh~", and although he was a little suspicious, he didn't ask any further questions.
However, for Lu Hean, the identity of cousin was obviously not enough for him, he wanted everyone around Pei Shuyu to know that he belonged to Pei Shuyu.
Soon, the opportunity came.
After two weeks of training, they were able to go out and take on some low-level missions. Due to their lack of actual combat experience, they were still unclear about the enemy's deployment. Pei Shuyu fell into a trap in order to save his teammates.
As luck would have it, the trap contained several knife points. Pei Shuyu was incredibly lucky, as only his calf was injured. The wound was quite deep, and he was rushed to the Alliance Hospital that day for stitches.
Lu Hean waited for Pei Shuyu's news at home for a whole day, and he couldn't bear it any longer, so he took the initiative to find Saifan.
After asking around, Lu Hean learned that Pei Shuyu had been injured and was in the hospital. He turned pale with fear. But he quickly calmed down, asked where the hospital was, and rushed there.
Pei Shuyu didn't feel anything about this, he just regretted that he hadn't been able to train for a long time.
The wound on his hand had just healed when a new wound appeared on his leg - now it was wrapped in bandages and placed in front of him.
I can only say that I really have a connection with the hospital.
No wonder the dean's mother is so worried about him. We must not let her know.
Lu Hean felt distressed and couldn't help complaining: "Why are you so careless?"
Looking at Lu Hean's red eyes, Pei Shuyu felt a warm and guilty feeling in his heart. He said softly, "These are just minor injuries. They will be fine after some rest. I'm fine. Don't worry."
But Lu Hean persisted: "Even if you had your limbs amputated, would you still say it's okay?"
Pei Shuyu was silent.
Lu Hean pursed his lips and turned his head away. Pei Shuyu saw his shoulders trembling slightly. He leaned over with difficulty to look at him, but inadvertently caught a glimpse of Lu Hean's red eyes, as if he was about to cry.
Pei Shuyu's heart tightened and he asked hurriedly, "Why are you crying? Hey, don't cry." He was suddenly at a loss. He wanted to reach out to comfort her, but he didn't know where to put his hand.
Lu Hean sniffed and sighed, "I was really worried about you. I couldn't contact you all day. Do you know how scared I was? I was afraid that something might happen to you..."
I'm afraid I'll never see you again.
Seeing him like this, Pei Shuyu felt a mixture of emotions. He sighed softly and said slowly, "That's why I told you not to have too many expectations of me. My job is full of dangers, and this kind of situation will only increase in the future. Besides, the one-month deadline is almost up. Instead of being so nervous, it's better to end the relationship early."
Lu Hean suddenly raised his head and looked at Pei Shuyu firmly, the tears in his eyes stubbornly refusing to fall. He said word by word: "No."
Pei Shuyu looked at Lu Hean, his heart full of confusion.
But in the current situation, it is better to cut the Gordian knot.
"Lu Hean..." Pei Shuyu was about to speak, but was interrupted by Lu Hean.
"I said no..." Lu He'an held Pei Shuyu's hand tightly, as if afraid that he would disappear in the next second.
Pei Shuyu felt the warmth in Lu Hean's hand, and his defenses began to waver. He looked at Lu Hean's determined yet pleading eyes for a long time before finally giving in and holding his hand.
Anyway, just one month.
Because Pei Shuyu had difficulty walking, Saifan approved his leave and allowed him to live outside so that his teammates' training would not affect him.
It is said that it takes a hundred days to heal a broken bone. Taking Pei Shuyu's injury into consideration, Saifan approved a two-month leave. But Pei Shuyu refused and only asked for one month.
"It's just a minor injury, it's really no big deal." Pei Shuyu argued that he didn't need such a long vacation. Lying in bed all the time would make him tired.
Yu Wei and Xiao Qingyang shed tears of envy: It’s so lucky, we can have a month’s rest.
Not only did he get a vacation, but his outstanding performance beyond others also earned him special attention from some instructors.
"If I had known earlier, I would have chosen that route. I haven't had a good rest in the past half month..."
Xiao Qingyang also agreed: "What a pity, my vacation..."
Fu Zhouxing added coldly: "Pei Shuyu's injury was minor, but if you two fall in, you will suffer a concussion and a first-degree disability."
Yu Wei: “…”
Xiao Qingyang: "..."
Just like that, Pei Shuyu reluctantly left the dormitory with a one-month vacation. Yu Wei carried him to the door, and Lu Hean had been waiting for him in the car for a long time.
Seeing them come out, Lu Hean quickly stepped forward to take it, still using the princess carry, "I'll do it, Brother Shuyu, does your leg still hurt?"
Pei Shuyu was a little uncomfortable being treated like this for the first time, "It doesn't hurt much anymore."
He sat in the passenger seat and looked around curiously at the car's interior. The leather was brand new. It was obviously an expensive car. Where did Lu Hean, a college student, get so much money? Lu Hean turned his head and saw his eyes, and laughed, "This car belongs to my friend. He let me borrow it this time."
Oh, not his.
Pei Shuyu didn't continue touching it. If it was broken, neither of them could afford to pay for it.
The car drove smoothly out of the area where the Sevan headquarters was located and merged into the traffic on the city's main road.
Pei Shuyu watched the familiar street scene outside the window quickly backing up, thinking about the direction of Lu Hean's apartment, but found that the car did not turn at the expected intersection.
"Huh? Aren't we going home?" Pei Shuyu turned his head and looked at Lu Hean in the driver's seat in confusion.
Lu Hean held the steering wheel with one hand, and stretched out his other hand naturally, gently covering the back of Pei Shuyu's hand resting on his legs, and rubbed it soothingly with his fingertips.
"No." He smiled, his profile looking especially soft in the afternoon light. "Brother Shuyu, it's a rare month of vacation. It's so boring staying in the apartment all day to recuperate. I'll take you somewhere to relax."
"Where are you going?" Pei Shuyu was a little confused by his sudden decision. The warm touch on the back of his hand also made him feel a little uncomfortable. He wanted to pull it back, but he felt that his reaction was too exaggerated and seemed pretentious.
"Haicheng." Lu Hean withdrew his hand and focused on the road again, his tone relaxed. "I heard that the scenery there is particularly beautiful, and the air is good, suitable for recuperation. And..." He paused and added, "I happen to have a... friend who is a doctor there. He is very skilled. Let him take a look at your leg again, and I will feel more at ease."
Pei Shuyu subconsciously wanted to refuse: "It doesn't have to be so troublesome, right? The doctors in the alliance all said that all I need to do is rest..."
"Broken bones are a serious matter, it's always a good idea to take a closer look. Besides," Lu Hean's voice softened again, with a hint of coquettishness, "just think of it as accompanying me for a walk, Brother Shuyu, I haven't been out to play for a long time."
Pei Shuyu looked at his profile as he concentrated on driving. The slightly drooping corners of his eyes showed a hint of "grievance". The words of rejection rolled around on the tip of his tongue, but he finally swallowed them back.
"Okay, let's play for a few days."
The car drove out of the downtown area and the scenery outside the window gradually became wider.
Tall office buildings and dense residential areas were left behind, replaced by vast fields and villages dotted among them.
The early summer sun shone down generously, gilding the endless green with gold. Occasionally, farmers could be seen working along the ridges of the fields, and in the distance, the dark green mountains undulated on the skyline, like a slowly unfolding scroll.
Pei Shuyu's tense nerves relaxed unconsciously.
He leaned back in his comfortable chair, looking at the scenery outside the window. This was a rare moment of relaxation for him since he joined Sevan.
There are no training targets, no assessment pressure, only soothing music in the ears and the rustling sound of wheels rolling over the road.
Lu Hean seemed to enjoy this state as well, with a faint smile on his lips.
He would occasionally point out to Pei Shuyu interesting sights passing by on the roadside.
"Look over there." Lu Hean's voice was a little excited. "Doesn't it look like a big dog lying down?"
Pei Shuyu looked in the direction he pointed. A large, weathered rock did indeed resemble the outline of a cute dog. He couldn't help but laugh, "It does look a bit like it."
As the journey progressed, the air gradually became salty and humid.
The vegetation on both sides of the road had also changed, with more low shrubs growing. When the car finally drove onto a coastal highway with an extremely wide view, Pei Shuyu couldn't help but sit up slightly straighter.
Suddenly, the view became clear.
On one side of the road is a verdant mountain wall, and on the other side is the endless blue sea.
The sunlight poured onto the sea without any obstruction, breaking into billions of jumping golden lights, extending to the end of the vision and connecting with the equally blue sky.
The sea breeze, with its unique refreshing scent, blows through the half-open car window and onto my face, feeling very comfortable.
In the distance, a few white seagulls are flying freely between the blue sea and blue sky, making long calls.
Pei Shuyu took a deep breath of air, and his chest seemed to be cleansed by the boundless blue, and the fatigue of the past few days seemed to be blown away.
The car continued along the winding coastal road. The sunlight shone warmly through the windshield on our bodies. The music in the car had turned into classical music at some point, creating a drowsy tranquility.
Pei Shuyu's nerves, which had been tense from days of injuries and training, finally relaxed. His eyelids began to twitch, and before he knew it, his head tilted to one side, and his breathing became long and even.
Lu Hean noticed the silence around him and turned his head slightly to take a look.
Pei Shuyu fell asleep.
The sunlight cast a small shadow on his handsome nose and slightly pursed lips. The sharpness during training and the embarrassment when facing him disappeared, leaving only an unguarded tranquility.
Lu Hean's eyes softened instantly. He quietly reduced the speed of the car to make the driving smoother and turned off the car music.
After doing all this, he focused on the road conditions again.
The scenery outside the window is still magnificent.
Inside the car, there was only Pei Shuyu's steady breathing and Lu He'an's focused, almost greedy gaze when he occasionally glanced at him.
The wheels carried them all the way towards the sunshine and the depths of the sea.
