Chapter 40
Chapter 40
Xu Ji raised his head, and met Gu Mingsheng in the rearview mirror with light eyes that were neither salty nor dull: "Drive your car carefully, don't look around."
If he couldn't even see this look in his eyes, Gu Mingsheng wouldn't say that he and Xu Ji were old friends for many years.
The corners of his eyes couldn't help twitching, comforting himself to comfort his fragile heart that was once again refreshed by Xu Ji's shamelessness, and helplessly changed the subject: "Why didn't you hide outside? There are too many people and things that can threaten you in this society, return to your ancestors It is best not to reveal your identity easily, as it will easily attract danger."
"I didn't pay attention. I was dragged into the water by my classmates during the exam."
"Have they seen it?"
"Um……"
Gu Mingsheng clicked his tongue twice, a little worried for him: "It's more dangerous for a public figure to be exposed. It's not my malicious speculation. You have too many fans. Who knows what monsters and ghosts are in there. Your company should hide it and find a way." ? And Lao Xu, you also help him watch, now he must be more careful than usual."
This point, Xu Ji is clearer than him: "Don't worry, you don't need to talk about this."
The temporary driver Xiao Gu didn't stay long after sending the two of them home, and turned around and went back consciously.
As soon as Bai Ai got out of the car, he was shivered by the cold wind outside, tightened his neck and sneezed forcefully, Xu Ji helped him put on his hat again from behind, and entered the elevator with his arms half hugged.
As the temperature turned hot and cold, Bai Ai began to feel a little dizzy.
When he got home, Xu Ji immediately turned on the air conditioner at home and let him go into the bathroom to take a hot bath again. After he came out, he took him to the sofa to sit down, and at the same time handed him a cup of freshly brewed ginger tea.
Bai Ai held the cup and sipped, and Xu Ji took advantage of this gap to help him dry his hair.The steam from the herbal tea steamed up, and the warm wind and his gentle fingers running through his hair made Bai Ai feel drowsy very quickly, falling asleep.
"Just now I saw a student took a picture, and it is estimated that it will be posted on the Internet. Do you want to tell your company to get them ready to intercept the picture?"
Bai Ai was able to answer his question logically and clearly in a daze: "There is no way, the speed of news transmission must be faster than the speed of interception. I have already told this matter to my agent, and he said that we can only try our best. There is nothing you can do to stop it.”
The soft voice made Xu Ji's heart soften, and he patted his head soothingly with lowered eyebrows: "It's okay, it doesn't matter if everyone knows about it, don't be afraid, I will protect your safety."
Bai Ai shook her head and said, "I'm not afraid. In fact, I think it's okay. After all, bad people are already bad, and good people won't become bad people just because they know I'm an atavistic, just like some time ago, When my identity was not exposed, I was not followed by someone."
Xu Ji laughed for a while: "You can think about it."
"This is the truth." Bai Ai's eyelids became heavier and heavier, and she could hardly open them: "There are also many front rows in the circle who have not concealed their identities. Aren't everyone in good shape? They are all supported by fans. You can't always speculate on them with the worst malice."
Although the kid is stubborn and arrogant, he is very simple and kind. It's not that he doesn't understand some things, but in his concept, he is more willing to believe in beautiful things. Even if he has been hurt, he doesn't want to remember it long after he has learned a lesson.
In the past, such an idea would have seemed a little silly to Xu Ji, but now, Xu Ji would not even open his mouth to remind him or tell him that some people in this world really have unimaginably broken hearts. I hope his little friend can always be like this, see all the light in this world with the cleanest eyes, and only need to trust him in the dark places.
"Well, you're right, there's really nothing to be afraid of."
Bai Ai lowered her head and muttered in a daze, her small face was almost buried in the quilt.
Touching the dry soft hair, Xu Ji put down the hair dryer, squatted halfway in front of him, saw that he was so sleepy that he couldn't open his eyes, and helped him take the cup and put it aside in a funny way: "Go in and sleep for a while, get ready Let me call you after dinner, okay?"
"Um……"
He expertly carried him back to the bedroom, put him lightly on the bed and pulled up the quilt. The child turned over and stuffed himself further into the bed, and soon fell into a deep sleep.
The sunshine time in winter is getting shorter and shorter, but just after six o'clock, the sky gradually darkens.
Bai Ai felt more and more uncomfortable in a daze in his sleep. During half-dream and half-awake, he seemed to be in the ice and snow for a while, and in the middle of the stove for a while. When I opened my eyes, the eyelids seemed to have weight, and I couldn't open them no matter what.
In a daze, someone opened the door and came in, and called his name, humming from his throat, I don't know if the other party heard it.
The sound of footsteps gradually approached, and a slightly cool palm was pressed against his forehead, which was in stark contrast to his excessively high body temperature. He was so comfortable that he couldn't help but let out a sigh, and leaned close to rub against his forehead affectionately.
"Bai Ai?" The other party's hand didn't stay for long, and then patted him on the shoulder lightly: "You have a fever, good boy, get up and I'll take you to the hospital."
fever?who?
The external interference finally allowed him to successfully open a slit of his eyes, and his temples hurt intermittently. The glare of the lights and the shaking figures made his already restless head even more dizzy.
He raised his hand and wanted to cover his eyes with the back of his hand, but Xu Ji held him halfway, and passed his hand through the back of his neck to help him up easily: "Hold on for a while, I'll carry you to the car."
Bai Ai subconsciously held onto his neck, resting her dizzy head on his shoulder.
"I'm so hungry." He said, "Can I not go to the hospital?"
"No, you have a fever, be obedient, go to the hospital and I'll buy you something to eat."
"There are anti-fever medicines at home. I can reduce the fever after taking it and sleeping. I don't need to go to the hospital."
Xu Ji carried her out of the room and coaxed her patiently: "Sleep can't bring down the fever, the hospital is very close, it's nearby, don't worry, I'll be by your side."
The smell on his body is very good, Bai Ai tilted her head and leaned on his shoulder, her eyes wanted to close again, and she still insisted on reasoning with him: "It's not what you said a few days ago that you don't need to go to the hospital, just get some sleep Is that all right?"
"You are different from me."
"What's different?"
Bai Ai's persistence successfully made Xu Ji laugh, put him in the passenger seat carefully and fastened his seat belt, and touched his flushed face itchyly: "Everything is different, baby, you really have a fever."
A fake illness and a real fever, how can it be the same?
Drive to the hospital, queue up to see a doctor, get an injection and prescribe medicine, it is almost eleven o'clock after finishing, after repeated inquiries to confirm that there is no need for hospitalization, Xu Ji took him home again.
The cooked food must have been cold, and it will take time to reheat it. Xu Ji was afraid that he would be very hungry, so he bought a light seafood porridge on the way, and patiently fed him spoonful after spoonful after returning home.
The injection worked quickly, and Bai Ai didn't feel so uncomfortable now. He had never been fed like this before, and he always felt awkward, especially when Xu Ji approached, the surrounding air seemed to become thinner .
"I'll do it myself."
He reached out to pick it up, but Xu Ji didn't give him this chance to express himself: "Be good, go to bed early after eating, and you'll be fine when you wake up tomorrow morning."
The quiet atmosphere was really strange, Bai Ai uncomfortably ate the food that Xu Ji fed him, racking his brains to find something to talk about, to break this delicate atmosphere.
"Have we been unlucky recently? It's my turn if you catch a cold."
"It's a little bit." Xu Ji followed his words: "I'll ask you to get a safety amulet to wear in two days?" Or, ask Wu Xu to take one or two subjects to block his kitten unlucky.Of course, Xu Ji didn't tell Bai Ai about the latter idea.
"I didn't mean that." Bai Ai actually said casually: "My parents don't believe this, not to mention it's not cost-effective to make a fuss over such a trivial matter."
"Not necessarily." Xu Ji blew the porridge in the spoon and handed it to his mouth: some things are of great importance, but I'd rather believe it or not. "
Bai Ai expressed doubts: "Is a cold a big deal?"
"No." Xu Ji raised his eyes slightly, just in time to look into his eyes: "Cold doesn't count, you count."
"Or to be more precise, everything related to you is of great importance."
Before he said this, Bai Ai was still thinking in his heart that those eyes were so beautiful that it was unbelievable, and when he turned around, he was dazed by this wave of unclear speech.
He is 21 years old this year, and there are still more than five months before he turns 22. Regardless of whether it is calculated according to the mathematical rounding algorithm or the calculation of the false age in the lunar calendar, he claims that 22 is not too much.
In other words, no matter how many years he has lived, he has been single for as many years, and he has no experience at all whether he is flirting or being flirted.
He didn't know if Xu Ji was in the same situation as him. He couldn't tell whether Xu Ji was thinking of a teacher caring about his students when he said this, or...something else, but at least he It is certain that when I heard it, my heart beat suddenly.
The pupils shrunk unconsciously, and the slightly widened eyes were ignorant, bright, and seemed to be trying to prove something.
The time they stared quietly at each other was less than ten seconds. Bai Ai looked at Xu Ji's indifferent gaze, and suddenly pursed the corners of her mouth tightly. The whole face was buried under the quilt, leaving only half of the back of Xu Ji's head where "Don't talk" was written brightly.
"I'm sleepy and want to sleep, so I won't eat the rest."
There was still half of the bowl left uneaten, Xu Ji looked down, and asked the cute little kitten that even the back of its head was written all over: "Do you really want to eat? Are you afraid of being hungry in the middle of the night?"
Bai Ai turned around, revealing a pair of bright eyes from under the quilt, shook her head firmly, and said softly, "I'm not hungry, I'm going to sleep."
Xu Ji didn't force it, got up and left the room with the bowl in hand, and when he came back, he put a cup of hot milk in his hand: "Drink it before going to sleep, you can sleep better."
The sound of footsteps leaving the room, the door lock clicked, Bai Ai slowly got out of the quilt and sat up again, staring at the glass of milk with a tangled expression for a while...
After holding it in his hand, he drank it in small sips, shook his head to keep himself from thinking wildly, got into the quilt and continued to sleep.
People who have received injections and taken medicines can get enough sleep. Even if they are woken up by slight movements in the middle of the night, they will still be in a daze, half dream and half awake, not knowing when it will be.
He knew that Xu Ji came several times during the night, without turning on the light, he checked his condition with the weak light of the bedside night light, and tested whether his fever had subsided.
The last time, Bai Ai opened a small slit, and as far as he could see, Xu Ji looked down at him, half of his face was hidden in the shadows, his slender and thick eyelashes cast shadows under his eyes, his eyes were so gentle in the dark night that he could His soul is devoured.
An uncontrollable cough came out of his throat, the peeking person was discovered, Bai Ai looked into his eyes, the corner of the other person's eyes rolled, and he touched his cheek, thinking he was sleepy and unconscious: "It's still early, close your eyes and sleep obediently."
Bai Ai wanted to speak, but her voice was dry and hoarse, and she gave up without uttering a single syllable. She closed her eyes obediently, and when she heard the sound of the door closing and leaving, Bai Ai opened her eyes again, staring at the night light out of focus. After watching for a while, he pulled up the quilt and covered himself completely.
Sure enough, he really can't take care of people.
In the same situation, Xu Ji would insist on taking him to the hospital, feed him with his own hands, and visit him every now and then at night. If he did the same when Xu Ji was sick, wouldn’t Xu Ji have a cold? Is it okay to wait for so many days?
The undispelled sleepiness hit him once, and before he fell into a deep sleep, Bai Ai couldn't help gently covering the position of his heart. This time, even if he was insensitive to him, he could feel that something had changed unconsciously. up.
