Chapter 118 Chapter 118 A straight shot?
Qin Moran turned his eyes away and didn't watch Li Chi changing his clothes.
Li Chi put on his clothes one by one, then went to look at Qin Moran. He found that the tips of Qin Moran's ears were a little red.
Li Chi found a topic to ask Qin Moran: "I heard that the basketball team captain of the high school next door has nice abs?"
Qin Moran was immersed in a somewhat awkward atmosphere, and was suddenly asked a question, and was a little confused: "What?"
Li Chi repeated the question.
Qin Moran then replied in confusion: "Really? I didn't pay much attention, I think so."
Li Chi raised an eyebrow: "Didn't you notice? I vaguely heard you discussing it with others."
Qin Moran didn't expect Li Chi to notice this. He was stunned for a moment before answering, "I didn't see it clearly at the time, I just said it casually."
Li Chi nodded thoughtfully: "Oh."
Qin Moran couldn't help but think, no matter how good the basketball captain's abdominal muscles were, he thought Li Chi's abdominal muscles were pretty good just now -
A thin layer, not too obvious, but the lines are smooth and beautiful.
When Qin Moran thought about what he was thinking, he felt even more embarrassed.
He could only comfort himself that this was an objective fact and he was just describing it objectively.
Li Chi had been keeping an eye on Qin Moran, so naturally he didn't miss any of Qin Moran's changes.
He noticed that the tips of Qin Moran's ears had turned redder.
After staying in the dormitory for a while, the two went out together.
When he arrived downstairs at the dormitory, Li Chi went to the vending machine and bought two bottles of water.
He came over with two bottles of water and handed one to Qin Moran.
Qin Moran reached out to take it.
When the two were handing over the water, their fingers accidentally touched.
They had touched hands before, and it was normal at the time, but now their mentality has changed, and the feeling of touch has become very vivid, like being touched by electricity.
Qin Moran quickly took the water and withdrew his hand.
Li Chi curled his fingers and retracted them.
He could sense that Qin Moran didn't know how to approach him.
Perhaps he was a little impatient and brought things to light too quickly.
But now that it's like this, there's no point in regretting it.
What matters is what to do next.
Time flies.
As the cold winter arrived, snow began to fall from the sky.
Until one day, the temperature dropped below zero.
Countless snowflakes flew down from the sky and accumulated in a thick layer on the ground, which was a beautiful sight.
The snow continued to fall until noon.
Qin Moran and Li Chi walked out of the teaching building together and went to the cafeteria to eat.
Qin Moran was fascinated by the snow scene in front of him. When he stepped into the snow and a cold wind blew, he shrank his neck and realized that he had forgotten to wear a scarf.
Seeing this, Li Chi took off his black scarf and reached out to put it on him.
Qin Moran subconsciously stopped him.
Li Chi paused holding the scarf.
Qin Moran said a little uncomfortably: "Thank you, I'll wear it myself."
Ever since he realized something, he has not been as natural and generous when interacting with Li Chi.
The friendship between the two is still there, but there seems to be something extra. This extra thing makes every detail of their interaction infinitely magnified, making it easy for people to capture some subtle things.
Li Chi didn't force it, but put the scarf in his hand.
Qin Moran took the scarf.
The scarf is made of soft material and still retains Li Chi's warmth, giving people a very warm feeling.
Qin Moran didn't rush over immediately.
Li Chi asked him, "What's wrong?"
"It's okay." Qin Moran tightened his grip on the scarf and began to put it around his neck.
The scarf was wrapped around the neck in circles, carrying Li Chi's breath and warmth, as if the whole person was wrapped in Li Chi.
Qin Moran realized this and felt his neck getting hot.
He quickly adjusted his scarf, then put his hand down and tried hard to ignore the fact that he was wearing Li Chi's scarf.
The two continued walking towards the cafeteria.
The shoes stepped on the snow, leaving a trail of footprints.
Qin Moran put his hands in his pockets, lowered his head, and felt the touch of the snow.
Li Chi turned his head to look at him from time to time.
Qin Moran walked in such heavy snow, with his head down, and the falling snowflakes formed a scene of their own.
Snowflakes fell on his hair and clothes...
Li Chi watched this scene and spoke after a while: "Mo Ran..."
Qin Moran raised his head and looked at him; "Hmm?"
Li Chi asked him, "Do you think it's useful to make a wish during the first snowfall?"
Qin Moran couldn't help but laugh and said, "You still believe this?"
Li Chi nodded: "Yes, I want to make a wish."
Qin Moran was a little curious: "What is it about?"
Li Chi looked at him seriously and said, "I'm planning to start pursuing the person I like. Do you think I can succeed?"
Qin Moran was stunned for a moment.
The moment he heard Li Chi's words, it seemed as if the snowflakes around him stopped for a moment before continuing to fall.
Li Chi's eyes were particularly dark, looking at him through the snowflakes.
The first snow is indeed a romantic day.
Qin Moran was stunned for a long time before he turned his head away. He felt his mind was a little blank. He subconsciously grabbed the end of the scarf, as if this could make him feel a little real.
His heart was beating fast, and he didn't look at Li Chi or say anything.
But Li Chi didn't give him much chance to struggle, and asked again: "Do you think I can succeed?"
Qin Moran was brought back to his senses by this sentence, and he almost couldn't find his voice: "T-this, I don't know either."
Li Chi lowered his eyelids when he heard this answer, then raised them again: "Well, no matter what, I will do my best."
It was winter, but Qin Moran felt his face getting hot. He quickly said, "Let's go to the cafeteria first. If we're late, there will be a lot of people lining up."
Li Chi knew he was trying to change the subject, so he agreed, "Okay."
Ten minutes later, the two arrived at the cafeteria.
Qin Moran discovered that since the conversation just now, Li Chi seemed to be really taking some actions.
When the two of them usually eat together, Li Chi takes good care of Qin Moran, such as helping him get tableware, helping him queue up for food, etc.
And today this behavior has been taken to a higher level.
Take drinking a drink for example, Li Chi even inserted a straw for Qin Moran before handing him the drink.
Qin Moran felt that he had almost no place left to use his hands.
It happened that several male classmates saw Li Chi helping him insert the straw.
Those male classmates were teasing each other there.
"Brother Li, aren't you a little too nice to Mo Ran?"
"To be honest, I've never been this attentive to my girlfriend."
"It's so unfair, why didn't anyone help me put in the straw?"
"Brother Li, will your future partner really not be jealous?"
Li Chi initially ignored the group's teasing, but after hearing the last sentence, he raised his eyes and asked Qin Moran in front of him, "Do you think my future partner will be jealous?"
There was a hint of teasing in those black eyes.
“???”
Qin Moran almost choked on his drink.
Li Chi quickly handed over a tissue; "Be careful."
Qin Moran coughed a few times and his face turned a little red. He didn't know whether it was because of the discomfort from coughing or because of what he just said.
After finally finishing coughing, Qin Moran couldn't help but glance at Li Chi across the table.
Li Chi, isn't this too blatant?
How come he didn't know Li Chi was so eloquent before?
Li Chi saw him glaring at someone, leaned back in his chair, and smiled: "What's wrong?"
Qin Moran picked up a pancake next to him and stuffed it into Li Chi's pocket: "Eat it quickly and stop talking."
He almost said "Shut up right now".
Li Chi seemed to be in a good mood, with a smile on his face all the time. He even took the cake that Qin Moran handed to him and started to eat it slowly.
After the meal it’s lunch time.
Qin Moran returned to the classroom and took a nap on the table.
The first class in the afternoon is the math class taught by the head teacher.
The head teacher arrived at the classroom a few minutes early and slammed the podium with a book: "Okay, okay, don't fall asleep, wake up quickly."
Qin Moran heard the noise and sat up in a daze.
His brain was still a little confused at the moment, and he couldn't react at all. He just blinked his eyes.
Huang Yu turned around and was stunned when he saw Qin Moran's appearance.
Tsk tsk, why does his deskmate look so cute even when he's just daydreaming?
At this time, the head teacher knocked on the podium again: "Okay, everyone, wake up, I want to talk about something."
Qin Moran finally came back to his senses from his dazed state, rubbed his face with his hands, blinked a few times, and tried hard to listen.
The head teacher said that the final exam is coming soon and asked everyone to be prepared.
However, before the final exam, the grade will organize a test so that everyone can have a better idea of their performance.
There was wailing in the class.
"Oh, another exam."
"Why does it feel like it hasn't been that long since the last midterm exam?"
"Ahhh, I don't want to take the exam!!"
"Look at the bright side. Winter vacation will begin after the final exams."
"Do you think we can have no homework during winter break?"
"I'm tired. Let's destroy it. Why does life bully a little fat guy like me?"
The homeroom teacher had been wearing a serious expression, but was amused by the crowd. "Alright, why are you all screaming and howling? I promise you, as long as your final grades are good, I'll ask the teachers to give you less homework."
Suddenly the class cheered again.
When people get together, emotions always come and go quickly.
Time soon came to the day before the test.
Unfortunately, because the weather was too cold, Qin Moran caught a cold as expected.
It was Li Chi who discovered this first.
While having lunch at noon, he noticed that Qin Moran's face was abnormally red.
His expression instantly became more serious: "Mo Ran, are you feeling unwell?"
Qin Moran looked up from his plate, his reaction a little slow: "Ah, is there?"
He was indeed feeling a little dizzy at the moment, but he thought it might be because he didn't sleep well last night, so he just needed to go back to the classroom and catch up on some sleep.
Li Chi stared at him and asked, "Are you having a fever?"
Qin Moran's face was flushed at the moment, and it seemed that his temperature was not normal.
Qin Moran reached out and touched his forehead, but couldn't figure out what was going on.
"Let me try."
Li Chi leaned over from across the table and placed his large palm on his forehead.
Qin Moran suddenly stopped moving.
However, when he was touched by Li Chi and felt the coldness of Li Chi's palm, he realized that he might really have a fever.
Li Chi also noticed Qin Moran's abnormal temperature, and his expression suddenly changed. He said in a calm voice, "I'll take you to the infirmary."
Qin Moran also knew that his physical condition was not as good as others, so he did not force himself and followed Li Chi to the infirmary.
However, after arriving at the infirmary, the doctor suggested that he should be given an IV.
Qin Moran was stunned and decisively refused: "No need for an IV, just buy some medicine."
He has an exam tomorrow, so how can he waste time getting the IV drip today?
Li Chi also stood on the doctor's side and advised him: "The infusion will make you better quickly."
Qin Moran insisted: "It's okay, I think I can handle it."
Li Chi wanted to say something else.
Qin Moran smiled and said, "Okay, no need to persuade me anymore. The final exam is coming soon, and I also want to see how good I am in the test tomorrow."
Even though Li Chi felt extremely distressed and reluctant, he could only compromise at this moment: "Okay."
However, even though he no longer needed the IV drip, Li Chi did not relax at all.
He supervised Qin Moran taking the medicine, and then braved the snow to run to the supermarket to buy Qin Moran a few hot packs for him to use to keep warm.
As for things like getting Qin Moran a cup of hot water after every get out of class, that goes without saying.
All the students in the class were shocked.
When had they ever seen their cold-hearted Brother Li running around like this for someone?
But no one thought much about it, they just joked about why they didn't have such a childhood friend, and that God was so unfair.
In the relaxed and happy atmosphere, there is one person in the class who is very unhappy.
That is Wang Qingyang, the second in the grade.
It all started when his deskmate joked, "Qingyang, do you think Qin Moran's grades have improved so much? Will he surpass you one day?"
I don’t know what the person who said it was thinking, but the person who heard it took it to heart.
Wang Qingyang's face has not looked good since he heard that sentence.
He glanced at Qin Moran gloomily.
It’s bad enough that he is always surpassed by Li Chi, but is he going to lose to Qin Moran now?
Why do they all have to step on his head? ! !
Time quickly came to evening, everyone had arranged the classroom and was waiting for the exam tomorrow.
Qin Moran didn't clean the table because Li Chi did it for him.
At this moment, Qin Moran was wearing a down jacket, holding a warm hand warmer in his hand, standing comfortably aside waiting for Li Chi to clean the table for him.
After everything was ready, the two of them walked towards the dormitory together.
Because he was sick, Qin Moran walked in the wind and snow, coughing once or twice from time to time, and his pace was very slow.
Seeing this, Li Chi's eyes showed an imperceptible look of heartache.
It took a lot of effort for the two of them to return to the dormitory building.
Li Chi sent Qin Moran to the dormitory door and whispered, "Remember to take your medicine at night. If you feel uncomfortable, remember to tell me."
Qin Moran nodded: "Okay, I understand."
But Li Chi was still worried and seemed to want to continue giving instructions.
Qin Moran smiled and said, "Okay, go back to the dormitory."
He felt that since he fell ill, Li Chi was almost treating him like a child who couldn't take care of himself.
Li Chi finally said, "Okay, good night then."
Qin Moran: "Good night."
Qin Moran turned around and tried to use his key to open the dormitory door.
At this time, Li Chi called him again: "Mo Ran."
Qin Moran turned his head: "Hmm?"
Li Chi said to him, "Extend your hand."
Qin Moran cooperated and took his hand out of the hand warmer, then stretched it in front of Li Chi.
Then the next second, Li Chi put a bag of candy in his hand: "If your mouth feels bitter after taking the medicine, remember to eat a piece of candy."
Qin Moran was stunned. Why did Li Chi take all aspects into consideration?
He tightened his grip on the candy in his hand and paused for a moment before answering, "Okay."
After seeing Li Chi off and returning to the dormitory, Qin Moran took the medicine.
My mouth really tastes bitter.
He quickly tore open the bag of candy Li Chi gave him, took out a piece and put it in his mouth.
The sour and sweet taste spread in your mouth instantly.
Then this sweetness reaches the bottom of my heart.
