He's so lucky.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Chen Nanxing stood at the door of Ji Chuan's room with the packed food in one hand and knocked for a long time.
They had been in Zhaofeng for several days and had always eaten together, but today Chen Nanxing had stomach discomfort at noon and couldn't eat anything, so he skipped lunch. In the afternoon, he was very hungry again, so he went to eat a little early and also packed some food for Ji Chuan.
Unable to resist Ji Chuan's constant nagging, Chen Nanxing agreed to Ji Chuan's request to travel with him, and brought the rescued tabby cat along.
Because it was inconvenient to take public transportation with a cat, Chen Nanxing and Ji Chuan abandoned this mode of travel. The two of them drove for more than 20 hours from Licheng to Zhaofeng.
Could it be that he is sleeping?
Chen Nanxing glanced at his phone and saw that the message he sent half an hour ago had not been replied yet.
Maybe he's sleeping.
Chen Nanxing found an excuse and was about to leave after putting the food on the small dining table by the door. At this moment, the door, which had not responded after he had knocked for a long time, was opened from the inside with a click.
"Nanxing, what's wrong?"
Ji Chuan opened the door a little, stuck half of his body out of the gap and called out to Chen Nanxing.
Chen Nanxing took a look at him and saw that Ji Chuan was only wearing a white T-shirt. His curly hair had obviously been groomed today, and every hair was in just the right place. Combined with the suspicious blush on his cheeks, Chen Nanxing understood. She picked up the packed food in her hand and handed it forward:
"It's okay, I packed some food for you, sorry to bother you."
The more he listened to this, the more he felt it was wrong. Ji Chuan felt that Chen Nanxing seemed to have misunderstood him, and this misunderstanding seemed to be quite serious...
After a mental struggle between letting Chen Nanxing discover that he was filming a borderline video and letting Chen Nanxing in, Ji Chuan decided to open the door and let Chen Nanxing in. It would be better to let Chen Nanxing discover that he was filming a borderline video:
"Don't bother me, come in."
Chen Nanxing walked in hesitantly. There was no light on in the hotel suite, but the warm purple ambient light filled the room with ambiguity.
“…”
Chen Nanxing was a little speechless.
He was caught on the spot by his secret crush while filming a borderline video. This embarrassing plot actually happened to him. Ji Chuan's face turned red all the way to his neck. In this state, even his explanation seemed to be too obvious.
"At the beginning, I couldn't get my account data up and running. Boss Jiang once spotted me and told me I could get by. I found that this data was indeed good, so I started posting one every week."
“…”
This is very Jiang Zhixu.
The room was decorated in a very romantic way. Chen Nanxing transferred the packed food to his left hand, pressed the switch casually, and turned on all the lights in the suite.
This is much more normal.
Ji Chuan took the food that Chen Nanxing packed for him, led Chen Nanxing to the table and sat down to start unpacking the box:
"Why are you eating so early today?"
Lihua smelled Chen Nanxing's scent and meowed as she rubbed against Chen Nanxing's feet. Chen Nanxing bent down and hugged her and petted her twice:
"I want to go out for a walk today."
Yes, Ji Chuan is already raising this tabby cat, and its name is Lihua.
Ji Chuan had already opened the box, and upon hearing this, he closed the lid again:
"I want to go shopping too. I was in a hurry last time I came here and didn't do much shopping."
Chen Nanxing's request to take Ji Chuan for a walk was meaningless, but Ji Chuan was busy now. She glanced at the purple ambient light meaningfully, and Ji Chuan quickly got it, but he was still a little embarrassed:
"It's all filmed, just edit it tonight."
Chen Nanxing hugged Lihua and smiled, no longer teasing Ji Chuan:
"If you're hungry, eat first. I'll wait until you finish."
With the pear blossoms to touch, the wait didn't seem long. Chen Nanxing stroked the cat and chatted with Ji Chuan as they walked past.
Her destination was very clear. She took Ji Chuan to a high school. The high school was built in the downtown area, facing a rushing river. There was a park and a square on the left, as well as a basketball court.
Chen Nanxing didn’t know how many years had passed since he graduated. He couldn’t enter the school and could only stroll around the square and park outside.
The Lantern Festival had long passed, and the students had all gone back to class. The street was lined with small vendors in front of the school. Ji Chuan bought a roasted sweet potato, broke it in half, and shared it with Chen Nanxing. He asked:
"Did you study in this school?"
Chen Nanxing didn't want to eat dinner at first, but the aroma of roasted sweet potatoes aroused his appetite, and Chen Nanxing couldn't help but take a spoonful.
The hot food entered his stomach like a ball of fire, burning from the inside out, warming his whole body. Chen Nanxing closed his eyes in satisfaction:
"Why do you ask?"
Ji Chuan's way of eating was not as elegant as Chen Nanxing's. He peeled the skin and bit into it directly:
"I guessed."
Chen Nanxing didn't ask Ji Chuan any more questions, but nodded and said:
"Well, my husband and I both attended this school. He was in high school, and I was in junior high."
How come this person suddenly interrupted the good atmosphere? Ji Chuan suddenly felt that the sweet potato roasted in his hand was no longer fragrant:
"Oh, he's really lucky."
He met Chen Nanxing so many years before him, so why is that guy so unlucky? He should have died a good death!
Chen Nanxing didn't understand the silent jealousy between men. She shook her head and denied Ji Chuan's statement that Lin Shanglu had a good fate.
“I was lucky at that time.”
Ji Chuan became even more jealous. They were about to get divorced, but Chen Nanxing still spoke up for him. That man was really lucky.
A big part of the reason Chen Nanxing came to Zhaofeng was that he couldn't let go of the past. Now that he was revisiting the old place, many memories seemed to resurface before his eyes. Coincidentally, Ji Chuan was a good listener, so Chen Nanxing also had a window to confide in:
"I grew up in an orphanage until I was twelve. After I was adopted, my adoptive parents transferred me to a school near our home. The people there were all neighbors, and we knew each other's family affairs very well. They also knew that I was adopted, so many people didn't like me when I was in school. My adoptive mother was busy working outside, and my adoptive father ran a small factory. They didn't pay much attention to me. When I started junior high school, this situation became even more serious. Many people in school didn't like me. It was common for them to ask me to give them money or block me from leaving. I was often scared and hid under that big banyan tree. Look, that's the one."
As she spoke, she pointed to the huge banyan tree in the park:
"Later, I met him under that banyan tree. He was very capable and helped me drive them away every time."
But later on, things and people changed, and the young man who had sheltered her from the wind and rain under the tree turned into a torrential rain pouring down on her alone.
Chen Nanxing lowered his eyes and mechanically scooped a spoonful of roasted sweet potato into his mouth. Even without Lin Shanglu beside him, the roasted sweet potato was still very sweet, so sweet that it was greasy.
What's the big deal!
Ji Chuan thought to himself that if he had met Chen Nanxing in high school, he would definitely risk his life for her. That guy was just lucky to have met Chen Nanxing so many years earlier than him.
He couldn't help but imagine if the gears of fate turned again and he had met Chen Nanxing in his youthful student days, what kind of life would they be living now.
He was so absorbed in this thought that when he finally reacted, Chen Nanxing had an accident:
"careful!"
But it was too late. Chen Nanxing's feet brushed against the next step. The sudden loss of balance frightened her so much that she closed her eyes and whispered:
"ah--"
Ji Chuan's reaction was very fast. Almost the moment Chen Nanxing stepped on empty air, he reached out to grab Chen Nanxing, but he was still a little slow, and Chen Nanxing fell directly to the ground.
Chen Nanxing gasped in pain. She was too thin now. If someone pushed her with a little force, she would feel the pain in her bones, let alone falling down the stairs.
Ji Chuan squatted in front of Chen Nanxing anxiously to check his injuries. He was annoyed by the gasping sound caused by Chen Nanxing's severe pain.
"Blame me, blame me. Are you hurt from the fall?"
If he hadn't been distracted by unrealistic thoughts, this accident could have been avoided.
People's eyes are located in the front and cannot see the back. Besides, it was her own fault that she was distracted and not looking at the road, so it was not Ji Chuan's fault in any way.
"How can I blame you for this?"
Chen Nanxing shook her head and sat on the steps with the help of Ji Chuan. She frowned and looked at her ankle, bit her lower lip and wanted to rub it, but found that it hurt to touch it, so she gave up the idea.
After seeing this, Ji Chuan knelt on one knee and reached out to pull Chen Nanxing's socks down to his ankles so that he could check the injury on his feet. Chen Nanxing keenly sensed Ji Chuan's intention and subconsciously retracted his foot. The pain came like a tide, forcing Chen Nanxing to cry out in pain again.
The bitterness of it cannot be described to outsiders.
Seeing Chen Nanxing in so much pain, Ji Chuan didn't dare to touch her feet. He raised his hands:
"Don't be nervous, I just want to see how serious the injury is."
Chen Nanxing's pain sensitivity was particularly developed, and the previous blow almost made her cry. She endured the pain and pulled her socks down to the lowest point.
Ji Chuan was afraid that Chen Nanxing would hurt him again, so he didn't dare to reach out again. He only saw with his naked eyes that Chen Nanxing's ankle was swollen and the skin was purple. He said worriedly:
"No bones broken, are you?"
Chen Nanxing felt that she shouldn't be so unlucky. She felt it uncertainly and didn't feel the pain of a knife or an axe when she had a broken bone before. However, she was not a doctor after all, so she was not very sure.
"It doesn't seem like it. It's probably just a sprain."
Even a doctor cannot determine whether there is a fracture based on feeling alone. It is still necessary to go to the hospital for an X-ray to confirm. Ji Chuan picked up the bag that Chen Nanxing had thrown when she fell and returned it to Chen Nanxing, preparing to take her to the hospital for a check-up:
"Can you still walk?"
Chen Nanxing held Ji Chuan's hand and stood up, trying to take two steps. Her injured foot hurt when it touched the ground. She glanced at the road ahead.
It was only two hundred meters away from here, a few steps away, and it would be over in a few steps. Chen Nanxing forced himself to smile calmly:
"It hurts a little, can I help you?"
It hurts so much, but it's still just a little painful? Why are you trying to be so stubborn?
Ji Chuan felt depressed. He clearly noticed that Chen Nanxing's breathing became heavier as soon as his sprained foot touched the ground.
This must be a sign of extreme pain.
The hand that was supporting Chen Nanxing tried several times to pick her up and end the matter so that she would suffer less, but Ji Chuan knew Chen Nanxing's character very well. Chen Nanxing looked gentle and easy-going, but the sadness and indifference hidden in her eyes were like an iceberg that never melted, separating her from others.
This includes him as well.
Chen Nanxing would definitely be angry if he rashly considered her, so it would be better to reduce Chen Nanxing's burden as much as possible. This was all he could do. Ji Chuan took Chen Nanxing's bag and put it on his shoulder in frustration.
The motivation to get promoted is increased at this time.
When will they divorce? Ji Chuan was depressed while paying attention to Chen Nanxing, secretly trying to become Chen Nanxing's third leg.
Both Chen Nanxing and Ji Chuan focused their attention on Chen Nanxing's sprained foot and did not notice that there were two people hiding stealthily behind the lush banyan tree, holding up their cell phones and taking pictures of their departing figures.
