At noon the next day, when the other people came to the hospital to see Ye Ying, they were shocked to find He Xizhou was actually in the ward.
Ming Yuechen asked: "When did you come back?"
"Last night." He Xizhou looked at his teammates with a cold gaze, "You guys really listened to him. You kept it a secret when he asked you to?"
Qiu Shuang laughed dryly twice and felt a little guilty.
"I don't want you to worry..." Even Xu Qiongzhi felt a little unsure and quickly changed the subject, asking, "How many days will you stay this time?"
"Two days." He Xizhou said, "They won't give you leave if you grow older."
"Did you sleep in the hospital last night?" Li Jingfei said, "Go back and rest for a while. We'll watch over you here."
After Li Jingfei said this, others also realized that He Xizhou had been on the plane for more than ten hours. He probably went straight to the hospital after getting off the plane yesterday and spent the night on the small sofa in the ward. He must have been very tired.
"No." He Xizhou glanced at Ye Ying and said in a relaxed tone, "I don't feel tired."
Ye Ying looked at her nose and her heart, playing with her fingers, feeling guilty for doing something bad in public.
Everyone assumed that He Xizhou slept on the small sofa last night, but in fact he was squeezed into the bed and slept with me.
"Have you eaten?" Ye Ying asked after coughing. "Don't we have a music variety show to record at 2pm? Go eat quickly. I'm fine."
Several people came here after finishing their morning work. In fact, everyone knew that Ye Ying's body had basically recovered, but they couldn't bear to leave him alone in the hospital, so Yikong would come to accompany him.
"Since He Xizhou is here, let's go back first." Ming Yuechen exchanged glances with He Xizhou and said to the other teammates, "Come and pick up Ye Ying from the hospital tomorrow."
They did have a schedule for the afternoon, so they said goodbye to the two and went back to work. He Xizhou saw that it was noon and asked Ye Ying: "What do you want to eat? I'll go buy it."
"The doctor said I should eat light food." Ye Ying thought for a moment, "Porridge and steamed buns."
The food in the hospital cafeteria was not good, so He Xizhou went to a nice restaurant nearby and bought two servings of stomach-nourishing porridge, a few steamed buns and some vegetables, which he packed up and took back.
Ye Ying opened the steaming porridge spoon and took a sip. He Xizhou asked, "Is it delicious?"
He nodded: "Yeah, it smells good."
He Xizhou asked again: "Do you like it?"
Ye Ying felt something was wrong and when she looked up, she saw the mockery in the other person's eyes.
"…taking advantage of me again," he muttered quietly, picking up the bag and taking a bite.
Can people still drink porridge properly after this?
He Xizhou smiled and picked up a bag as well.
The two of them finished their lunch leisurely. He Xizhou went to throw away the garbage, washed his hands, and came back to close the curtains: "Let's sleep for a while."
Ye Ying said "hmm" and took the initiative to move to one side of the bed, leaving a space for him. He Xizhou smiled when he saw his action and said, "You won't sleep well if I squeeze you, I'll lean on the sofa for a while."
The single bed was too small, and two people sleeping together couldn't turn over. He was worried that Ye Ying didn't get enough rest last night and wanted him to have a good sleep.
"No." Ye Ying whispered, "I will feel at ease only if you sleep with me."
He Xizhou looked at him for a while, then went to bed, took him into his arms, and covered them both.
"How come you're so talkative all of a sudden?" He chuckled, "I'm really flattered."
Ye Ying leaned in his arms, was silent for a while and said: "Brother He, I lost the shell you gave me."
He said "shell" instead of "scarf". He Xizhou was slightly stunned: "You mean the one on the scarf?"
"Um."
He Xizhou was still a little confused, "...You know I was the one who glued the shell there?"
Ye Ying: “…”
The two looked at each other, and He Xizhou suddenly came to his senses: "So you already knew what I was thinking?"
Ye Ying turned her eyes away as if nothing had happened, and played with the sweater on his chest with her fingers.
"Don't play dumb." He Xizhou grabbed his hand, leaned over and stared at his face and asked, "When did you know that?"
Ye Ying had always acted too calm and normal, as if he really treated He Xizhou as a simple friend and teammate. As for He Xizhou, he had no idea what he was thinking, and for a long time he knew nothing about his secret feelings.
But if Ye Ying knew the meaning of this heart-shaped shell… wouldn’t it be too early?
Although they had confessed their feelings to each other, He Xizhou's heart suddenly became eager and he deliberately threatened: "Tell the truth quickly. Otherwise, I will forcefully kiss you again."
Ye Ying blushed, unable to bear his dominance, so she confessed in a low voice: "I knew it...when you kissed me for the first time."
He Xizhou frowned and thought about it carefully, and was suddenly shocked.
"You knew about it when we went to the beach for team building in Dream Camp!?"
Ye Ying was stunned for a moment, then she was also shocked:
"Did you kiss me secretly when we went to the beach for team building?"
“…”
“…”
An indescribable atmosphere spread in the air. Ye Ying felt almost familiar. She covered her face and said in a muffled voice, "I mean the fan meeting..."
"Oh..." He Xizhou accidentally exposed the fact that he had taken advantage of you, and felt guilty. "During the team building at the beach, I just kissed your hair on the bus, that's all."
Although he had some wild thoughts when they were sleeping together in the tent, he was too timid to do anything at that time.
He Xizhou thought about it for a long time, and finally figured it out. He found that he was still right, so he became arrogant again: "Classmate Ye Ying, you knew that I had a crush on you so long ago, but you pretended to know nothing, just to watch me act like an idiot and make you worry all day long, huh?"
Ye Ying knew she was in the wrong, so she didn't dare to refute him. She buried her face in his chest and hummed softly, trying to get away with it. The more He Xizhou thought about it, the more he felt he was at a disadvantage. He reached out and slapped Ye Ying on the butt, but he still didn't feel relieved, so he pressed her down on the bed and kissed her hard several times, and then buried his head in his neck and bit her lightly.
Ye Ying hissed and quickly pushed him away: "Don't bite, you'll leave marks again!"
He Xizhou paused, then slowly raised his head and stared at him: "Again?"
Ye Ying: “!”
He Xizhou narrowed his eyes: "So that time when we went to Qiu Shuang's house to eat hot pot, you got drunk and I kissed you, did you know that?"
Ye Ying: “…”
Help! He must have gone crazy from the continued fever to make so many stupid mistakes three times in a row!
Someone who revealed all his secrets tried to hide himself in a disguised quail, but He Xizhou ruthlessly pulled him out and gave him a long and fierce punishment.
Ye Ying tilted her head and took a breath, her eyes wet. When He Xizhou came closer, she covered her lips and asked softly, "No more kissing. It's going to swell."
He Xizhou temporarily spared him and stretched out his arms to hug him in his arms: "Put it on the account and settle it slowly later."
Ye Ying didn't dare to refute, so she held him obediently and returned to the original topic: "The shell fell off, what should I do? I have been looking for it for a long time and couldn't find it."
"Its mission is complete." He Xizhou said, pressing his hand to his chest and whispering, "I will accompany you in the end."
On a winter afternoon, the ward gradually became quiet, like an independent little world.
The two of them snuggled up to each other, their fingers clasped together underneath, and fell asleep.
