Chapter 35: The Tube Building (Thirty-Five)
After several days, Wen Yin finally came downstairs, accompanied by Shen Sinian.
When Wen Yin saw the children playing on the roadside, she suddenly thought of Xiaotuan, whom she hadn't seen for a few days.
"Don't worry, Xiaotuan goes to kindergarten. Someone will pick him up after school."
Shen Sinian went out and still held Wen Yin’s hand.
"From now on, you will all live upstairs. There are rooms next to it. Xiaotuan will have one, and you and I will have one."
"ah?"
Wen Yin moved her fingers, but they were held tightly again. She spoke softly.
"Doctor Shen... isn't living together too much? As the saying goes... distance makes beauty..."
Wen Yin said that, but what she actually thought in her heart was that she was very weak and couldn't handle it.
This time, Shen Sinian did not refute immediately, but just held her hand in silence. Finally, when Wen Yin was about to forget about it, he suddenly spoke again.
"I'm worried about not living together."
"What are you worried about?"
Wen Yin looked up at the person next to her and asked instinctively.
"I don't know, maybe you're too special."
Shen Sinian lowered his eyes and looked at her, with an emotion in his eyes that Wen Yin could not understand.
"It's so special that it makes me feel like this is... a dream."
"A dream tailor-made for me, from which I will soon wake."
A hoarse voice reached Wen Yin's ears.
"You, could this be a dream?"
-
Wen Yin started her daily routine of eating for free again, but today Xiaotuan was not around, so Wen Yin was a little more immune to the prying eyes around her.
Shen Sinian’s eating posture is very elegant, and it is pleasing to the eye.
Unlike Wen Yin who looks like a weak and soft little white flower, she eats like a whirlwind. Not only does she eat quickly, but she also eats very cleanly.
"Slow down, no one is competing with you."
A glass of water was pushed in front of Wen Yin. Shen Sinian had finished eating and sat opposite her, looking at her silently.
028 has already told Wen Yin how it was almost discovered, and has also figured out a little bit of the ins and outs of it.
As long as it doesn't stare into Shen Sinian's eyes, it won't attract the other party's attention.
Wen Yin took the water cup and took a sip, and seemed to understand the source of Shen Sinian's incoherent worry.
In this world, as a strange being, he felt a power that he could not control.
"I'm stuffed."
Wen Yin put down her bowl and chopsticks and changed the subject.
"Doctor Shen, can you go for a walk with me?"
Of course, Shen Sinian would not refuse Wen Yin's request. The two left the noisy cafeteria and took a walk in the park next to the hospital.
Holding hands, they look like a real couple.
During this period, she also met a few faces that Wen Yin was not familiar with, who seemed to be Shen Sinian's colleagues in the hospital.
"Doctor Shen, is your vacation over?"
The other party looked at Wen Yin, who was held by Shen Sinian, with a smile.
"I've never seen you take a vacation. It's different now that you have a girlfriend!"
Wen Yin nodded politely to the other party and smiled as a greeting.
When she raised her eyes, she saw Shen Sinian's gaze lingering on the corners of her raised mouth for a moment, and finally the fingers that were held tighter tightened.
The colleague opposite did not notice the undercurrent between the two and continued to joke and ask questions.
"But you two really are a perfect match, you look like a perfect match!"
As soon as the words fell, the grip that had just been painful suddenly loosened, and Wen Yin heard Shen Sinian's voice, which was always gentle and humble to the outside world.
"Thanks."
Wen Yin was originally worried about having provoked this jealous person again, but unexpectedly, the crisis was resolved so easily.
After those people walked away, Wen Yin looked at Shen Sinian in disbelief for several times, and finally couldn't help but speak.
Wen Yin: "Why are you so jealous?"
Shen Sinian: "Because you smiled at them."
Wen Yin: "But smiling is just a social courtesy."
Shen Sinian: "Then is your smile to me also a social courtesy?"
Wen Yin: "How can they be the same?"
Shen Sinian: “What’s the difference?”
Wen Yin felt that she had fallen into Shen Sinian's language trap again.
She sighed silently in her heart and decided to comfort this strange creature in front of her who always seemed anxious and worried.
As Shen Sinian looked at her with his eyes lowered, she put her arms around his waist and rested her head on his chest.
I could hear his disguised heartbeat next to my ears.
Plop, plop, so real.
"But I only know how to hug you like this, Dr. Shen, can you tell the difference?"
"It's barely distinguishable."
A slightly cool palm landed on Wen Yin's back, and he held her in his arms, like a giant dragon circling its favorite treasure.
-
Life became leisurely again, and everyone involved in the Song Wan case received the punishment they deserved.
Those who are sentenced to death will be sentenced to death, those who are sentenced to life imprisonment will be sentenced to life imprisonment.
But later I heard that Chen Si’s death sentence was commuted to life imprisonment, which might be due to some mysterious force.
After that, we could occasionally hear news from 028 that those people were having nightmares every night in prison.
[It’s better this way, only by living can I atone for my sins.]
Wen Yin had already moved upstairs. It was late at night and Xiao Tuan had fallen asleep.
When Wen Yin returned to the room, she found Shen Sinian leaning against the bed reading a newspaper.
She took a closer look and found that the newspaper was publishing the whole story of the Song Wan case. The news report used rigorous wording and was obviously official.
It is no longer the kind of news with romantic connotations as before.
Shen Sinian finished reading quickly, put the newspaper aside, and took Wen Yin who was approaching.
"Xiaotuan fell asleep?"
"Um."
Wen Yin nodded, inexplicably feeling that this kind of conversation was very similar to that of a couple who had been together for many years.
“Xiao Tuan is very obedient,” Wen Yin nestled into Shen Sinian’s arms, “It turns out that Doctor Shen was so cute and sensible when he was a child.”
"Do you like children very much? It seems that you like Xiaotuan very much."
Shen Sinian took off the glasses on his nose.
Wen Yin's heart suddenly became alarmed. It was not her fault for being sensitive. It was just that there had been too many similar conversations recently.
"Are you jealous of Xiaotuan too?"
Wen Yin moved to a comfortable position in Shen Sinian's arms.
"He's just a kid."
"Children will grow up too."
"If nothing unexpected happens, he will grow up to be like me now."
Wen Yin's perspective, which had just finished lying down, flashed, and she was being held by Shen Sinian and lying on top of him.
The soft quilt covered her back, and Wen Yin felt his cool hand on her waist.
Wen Yin shivered all over from the cold.
Shen Sinian was still silently describing what it would be like when the little group grew up.
"Will you like the grown-up Xiaotuan as much as you like me?"
Wen Yin was a little dizzy.
Lying on Shen Sinian's body, she couldn't see his expression, and could only feel the vibration of his chest when he spoke.
The hand on her waist was still stroking slowly. Wen Yin felt so itchy that she pressed down the hand that was still making trouble.
She spoke viciously.
"Are you trying to take advantage of this issue again?"
A chuckle came from above: "We've been discovered."
"Then what should I do?"
Wen Yin's teeth suddenly started to itch when she heard this malicious tone.
She lowered her head straight and bit the muscle below Shen Sinian’s collarbone.
After a few seconds, he opened his mouth in satisfaction.
"I've never seen you exercise, how come your chest muscles are so hard?"
Wen Yin felt her cheeks a little sore, so she raised her hands and rubbed them.
"It's so hard it hurts my teeth."
-
Wen Yin's legs are sore.
It seemed that she had the initiative, but in fact the hand on her lower back was the culprit.
Forget it, Wen Yin, who had given up, was completely out of energy. Instead of tiring herself out, she might as well just enjoy herself.
"I'm so tired. I don't want to move."
Wen Yin's voice was soft, and her eyes were still wandering on the tooth marks she had made.
"Then don't move."
A hoarse male voice was heard, and Wen Yin held his arm in a panic the next second.
"Don't be afraid, you won't fall..."
Wen Yin did not fall down, because she was completely unable to get down.
In the end, Wen Yin was so angry that she bit the other side of her collarbone again.
Wen Yin looked at the two symmetrical tooth marks with tearful eyes, which kept swaying in her sight, and thought to herself, this can be considered as recovering some of the losses.
-
Wen Yin felt that Shen Sinian had some strange habit that made him feel uncomfortable when he was away from her.
Wen Yin, who really wanted to have a good sleep, took advantage of the time when Shen Sinian was coaxing Xiaotuan to sleep and returned to 501 with her bedding.
No one had lived in 501 for some time, but Wen Yin's previous daily necessities were still there. Wen Yin simply packed up and closed the door.
After some hesitation, he finally locked it.
Wen Yin spent the first half of the night peacefully. Just when she thought Shen Sinian would not come down to stick to her again, the door lock made a click in the middle of the night.
028 woke up Wen Yin, and then sensibly sneaked into Wen Yin's consciousness.
Wen Yin was half asleep when she saw a tall figure in the night.
The figure walked to Wen Yin's bed and sat down, pressing the bedding down a little.
In the bright moonlight, Wen Yin saw Shen Sinian dressed neatly and sitting upright, but his expression showed a rare sense of grievance and confusion.
"Why don't you sleep in the same bed with me anymore? Are you tired of sleeping in my body?"
Wen Yin watched him sleepily as his appearance changed. Sometimes he looked like the landlord, sometimes like the young boy A Wu, and sometimes like a gentle doctor.
She rubbed her tired eyelids in distress and decided not to indulge this strange creature with a deep mind anymore.
Wen Yin casually pointed to the pages of the book that was spread out on the desk. This was the magazine she brought downstairs to pass the time.
There happened to be a few photos of advertising models printed on it.
"I think I'm a bit tired of it. Why don't you try becoming like this?"
As soon as the words fell, Wen Yin's eyes darkened. It was Shen Sinian who came over and fiercely blocked her lips.
"I refuse."
Wen Yin thought that tonight would be another night of tossing and turning until dawn, but she didn't expect that the other party only hugged her and kissed her for a while, then stopped, got into her quilt, and held her in his arms.
Wen Yin looked at Chen Sinian, who was hugging her in front of her, in surprise, and found that he did not make any further moves. He was just tracing her eyebrows and eyes under the moonlight.
She yawned and put her arms around the other person's waist.
It seems to be okay, Wen Yin thought. She felt the gentle force on her eyebrows and fell asleep peacefully.
