    Chapter 80

    Li Shuo packed up the wine bottle, wiped the floor, and went to take a bath.

    After taking a shower, found Zhao Jinxin lying on the ground...

    Li Shuo walked over, helplessly looked at Zhao Jinxin who was unconscious, hesitated for a moment, picked him up, and walked towards the guest room.

    Zhao Jinxin was really not light, especially when he was completely unconscious, Li Shuo was sweating when he put the person on the bed. He covered Zhao Jinxin with a quilt and wanted to close the door, but the strong smell of wine was almost integrated with Zhao Jinxin. He didn't want his room to smell like this, so he opened the window a little and the door was also open, There is enough heating in the room, so it shouldn't be cold if you cover it with a quilt.

    Li Shuo went to sleep.

    He was tossing and turning in bed, thinking about all kinds of things that had happened recently, none of which he could sort out, and none that didn't upset him.

    I don't know how long it took, and when he finally couldn't stop being tired and fell into a half-dream, suddenly, a short roar penetrated into his eardrum. The cry in the quiet late night caused his entire cerebral cortex to explode, and he suddenly woke up. .

    He was gasping for breath, his heart beating wildly, thinking that he was having a nightmare, but soon, there was a more frightened cry, just before...

    Li Shuo lifted the quilt and jumped out of the bed. He didn't even bother to put on his shoes, and ran to the guest room with bare feet.

    In the guest room, Zhao Jinxin was rolling over the bed with his head in his arms. It wasn't a hoarse roar. The head of the bed slammed against the wall. It was really scary to see this scene late at night. Xiang Yu was reborn on campus.

    "Jinxin!" Li Shuo rushed over and tried to suppress him, "What's wrong with you?! What's wrong with you, Zhao Jinxin!"

    Zhao Jinxin's appearance was so abnormal, as if he was afraid of something, and Li Shuo couldn't help feeling distressed when he watched him curl up into a ball.

    As if grabbing a life-saving straw, Zhao Jinxin suddenly turned over and hugged Li Shuo with such strength that he seemed to break a person's ribs, and at the same time his whole body was shaking uncontrollably.

    "You..." Li Shuo was almost out of breath by his strangulation.

    Zhao Jinxin shouted harshly: "It's so dark, where's the light? The light...it's so dark...so dark..."

    Li Shuo was stunned, and stroked his back vigorously: "I'll be there soon, I'll turn on the light." He tried to pull Zhao Jinxin's hand away, but Zhao Jinxin was so tight that he didn't let go at all. He couldn't help it, so he hooked up the bedside table with his feet, where there were emergency lights.

    Li Shuo wanted to lean over to get it, but Zhao Jinxin held him tightly, and said in a trembling voice in his ear, "Don't go, don't go."

    "Good number, I'm not leaving, I'm just taking the lamp." Li Shuo moved to the bedside table little by little. When a man bigger than himself was stuck on his body, the action was hard and funny. He moved for a long time. The arm was enough to get the emergency light. He turned on the emergency light and put it on the bed: "Okay, look, there is a light, it's all right."

    Zhao Jinxin's rapid breathing gradually began to slow down.

    Li Shuo stroked his back and softened his voice: "It's alright, it's bright, it's not dark, it's not afraid."

    Zhao Jinxin was silent for a full minute before whispering, "...Uncle Li."

    "I am." Li Shuo's tone was very light, only to intimidate him.

    "Uncle Li, it's so dark."

    "It's not dark, can I turn on the headlights?"

    "No, don't go." Zhao Jinxin buried his face in his neck and rubbed hard, "Don't go, don't go."

    Li Shuo sighed: "Okay, I don't..." He suddenly realized that something was wrong... Zhao Jinxin is so hot!

    Li Shuo reached out and touched Zhao Jinxin's neck, he was really hot!

    Is it because he opened the window?

    Li Shuo felt remorse in his heart, and he rubbed Zhao Jinxin's hair: "Jinxin, you seem to have a fever, can I measure your temperature?"

    "No." Zhao Jinxin said in a gnat-like voice against Li Shuo's ear, "Uncle Li, I'm afraid."

    "Don't be afraid, be good, don't be afraid." Li Shuo said softly, "If I don't leave, I'll go get a thermometer, okay?"

    "No." Zhao Jinxin hugged Li Shuo hard, without any intention of letting go.

    Li Shuo clearly felt that Zhao Jinxin was not very awake. He had never seen Zhao Jinxin like this before. He was so frightened that he did not dare to make an assertion. He could only let the other party hold him.

    After a few minutes, Zhao Jinxin didn't move or make a sound, and a uniform snort came from Li Shuo's ear.

    Li Shuo breathed a sigh of relief, gently pulled Zhao Jinxin's hand away, and gently placed the person on the bed.

    With the light of the emergency light, he saw Zhao Jinxin's face was sweaty and his lips were white, and he was obviously really frightened. He didn't expect Zhao Jinxin to be so afraid of the dark. Zhao Jinxin said that he has gotten much better when he grew up. When he entered the house, Zhao Jinxin was drinking alone without turning on the light. Why suddenly... Could it be a fever?

    Li Shuo was even more regretful that he opened the window. Although there was enough heating in the room, there were indeed gusts of cold wind blowing in. After all, it was the cold wind of the first month.

    He tiptoed out and returned with a thermometer.

    Zhao Jinxin burned to almost 39°, no wonder it was so hot.

    He put a wet towel on Zhao Jinxin's forehead, and then called a doctor who visited at night.

    After the doctor came, he gave Zhao Jinxin an injection, prescribed some medicine, and then left.

    Li Shuo was afraid that Zhao Jinxin would be afraid again, and that turning on the lights would wake him up, so he took the three emergency lights at home and placed them in the room, so that although the room was dark, they could still be seen.

    Even so, he didn't dare to go to sleep, he hesitated for a while, but still lay beside Zhao Jinxin.

    Seeing Zhao Jinxin's frowning eyebrows in his sleep, Li Shuo couldn't help but gently smoothed it with his fingers, and he murmured, "Poor little...".

    In the first half of the night, Li Shuo got up every once in a while to change a cold towel for Zhao Jinxin, until finally he couldn't stop the sleepiness and fell asleep.

    The next morning, Li Shuo woke up first, Zhao Jinxin was still in a drowsiness, he probed Zhao Jinxin's forehead, it seemed to be quite hot. He took his temperature again and it dropped to 38°.

    He got up, changed another towel, and went to the kitchen to cook. While cooking, he called Xiao Chen and asked Xiao Chen to come to his house immediately.

    After making breakfast, Xiao Chen also arrived.

    Li Shuo pointed to the guest room: "I'm going out now. The person inside wakes up in a while. You say you are taking care of him and say I left early."

    "Ah?" Xiao Chen looked dull.

    Li Shuo patted Xiao Chen on the shoulder: "Just do it. When he wakes up, let him eat, and then take the medicine. The medicine is on the coffee table."

    "……it is good."

    "You stay here today to take care of him. When he is better, send him home. If he is gone, you can call me again."

    "No, Mr. Li, who is it?"

    Li Shuo glanced at the bedroom and said lightly, "Zhao Jinxin."

    Xiao Chen made a clear expression.

    Li Shuo brought a few changes of clothes and went to the hotel. He also felt ashamed of this kind of evasion, but he really didn't want to and didn't know how to face Zhao Jinxin now. What's more, he is not in the mood to deal with it at the moment, and Xu Darui's affairs have made him devastated.

    When he got to the hotel, he called Xiang Ning to ask about the progress. Xiang Ning told him not to worry, he was dealing with it.

    After hanging up the phone, he fell on the hotel bed, staring at the ceiling in a daze. It was obvious that he had not slept all night, but he was not sleepy. For a moment, he didn't know what to do.

    But in just one year, he seems to have lost a lot of things. Feelings, careers, and reputations collapsed in front of him one by one. Now not only is his career unsustainable, his feelings are in a mess, he is also entangled in usury, as if he has not experienced bad luck in the past 30 years. Son let him experience it over and over again.

    Li Shuo really didn't know whether to blame Shao Qun or to blame himself for being unfavorable.

    He was too lazy to blame anyone, he just wanted to solve the problem, and then... and then probably just get out of here, go home, back to his home away from strife, where there was only warmth and love.

    It's just that he never felt that the time was so long. He couldn't sleep, and he had nothing to do. His mind was full of all kinds of information. He didn't even know whether he was thinking about loan sharks or Zhao Jinxin, which made him more uncomfortable. He couldn't get rid of it.

    He raised his watch and looked at the time.

    It's already afternoon. Zhao Jinxin is awake, are you still afraid? Have you eaten, have you taken medicine, and have your fever subsided? She probably hasn't gone home yet, and Xiao Chen hasn't called him yet.

    what are you doing now...

    Li Shuo closed his eyes and beat his head. He wanted to dig out all the things that made him uncomfortable, but unfortunately he couldn't.

    Suddenly, the phone rang, Li Shuo quickly took it, but the name of the caller ID was - Chang Wenyou.

    Li Shuo sighed and answered the phone: "Hello, Xiao Chang."

    "Mr. Li, are you busy? The voice on the phone is clear and pleasant.

    "Oh Nope."

    "Then, come out to play?" Chang Wenyou smiled and said, "The weather is good today."

    "I..." Li Shuo stared blankly at the ceiling, he wanted to refuse, but he felt that he was very suitable for exercise at this time, and exercise could vent a lot of unnecessary emotions, so he changed his words, "Okay, where is it? "

    Chang Wenyou's voice sounded very happy: "I'll send you the address, Mr. Li, waiting for your advice."

    Li Shuo smiled lightly: "Don't dare."

    Li Shuo got up from the bed, shook his head, and went out.

    When he arrived at the tennis court, he temporarily bought sports equipment and put it on.

    The two met in the lounge, and when they met, they found out that they were wearing exactly the same clothes, and they smiled at each other.

    "I also bought it here." Chang Wen pointed to the store and smiled shyly: "What a coincidence."

    "It seems that we have good eyesight." Li Shuo stretched his arm, "I haven't fought yet, I hope it won't be a joke."

    "How could it be, you played really well at that time."

    "At that time, it was already twelve years ago." Li Shuo sighed, "Time flies so fast, you were still a child at that time."

    "Yes, and you were my idol when I was young." Chang Wenyou gently patted Li Shuo's tennis racket with a tennis racket, his eyes bright and clear, "Come on, my wish back then was to play with you. Field ball, now it can finally be realized.​​​

    Li Shuo cheered up: "Come on."

    The two walked to the field.
