The sound insulation of the ward is not very good, Duan Chenyi can clearly hear the footsteps of the nurses working outside, the sounds of the patient's family members chatting outside the door, and...the sound of his own heartbeat.

It was an undisguised intensity, thud thud, stimulating my eardrum bit by bit.

The temperature in Wen Xu's palm is very cold, especially the fingers, the thin and long ones are entwined like this.But it always made Duan Chenyi feel vaguely hot, which made his heart a little soft.

Duan Chenyi's fingertips lightly rested on Wen Xu's palm, soft, and Duan Chenyi's eyes felt a little hot where the skin touched.

Looking at the past from Duan Chenyi's perspective, Wen Xu looked at him cautiously and tentatively.It's like... the kitten who has been fortified against the outside world for a long time, for the first time in this life, stretches out his hand cautiously towards someone he trusts.

It was a feeling of anticipation and hesitation.

Seeing that Duan Chenyi didn't respond, Wen Xu took his hand and shook it slightly uncertainly.

And this movement fell on Duan Chenyi's body, making him feel as if his heart was being gently scratched, a little itchy.

Duan Chenyi couldn't take it anymore, so he closed his eyes helplessly.

He struggled with forbearance, and finally compromised with Wen Xu.

This seems... a little too foul.

It's terrible.

Duan Chenyi took a deep breath, forcibly held back the dangerous thoughts in her heart, and gently took Wen Xu's hand back.

"Calculate."

His voice was a little hoarse, and he unconsciously grasped Wen Xu's hand when he spoke.

"As long as you want, you can rely on me as much as you want."

The focus is not on dependencies, but on "you".

Wen Xu was sitting on the hospital bed, when he looked over from his line of sight, what caught his eyes was his holding hands with Duan Chenyi.

His eyelashes trembled slightly, and the temperature that belonged to Duan Chenyi continued to radiate from his fingertips.

What's different from the past is that it's the first time I've taken the initiative to hold hands this time.

He only felt that there was always a very light current passing through the place where the two people's skin touched and exchanged body temperature.It's not dense, but...it seems to make the beating frequency of his heart become irregular again.

When Wen Xu felt this, his body froze slightly, and the other free hand touched his heart through his clothes.

He had a heart arrhythmia again.

But this time there is no alcohol, only Duan Chenyi.

Wen Xu's question that he left on the notebook not long ago seemed to have a clue suddenly.

The question that had troubled Wen Xu for a long time was answered, causing his eyebrows to twitch slightly, so he subconsciously pulled his hand back slightly.Duan Chenyi didn't let go, but took this opportunity to successfully narrow the distance between himself and Wen Xu.

The lemon scent on Duan Chenyi's body was very light, obviously a very fresh scent.But when he broke into Wen Xu's nasal cavity, he acted a little haphazardly, which made his heart a little hot.

The temperature spread from his chest to Wen Xu's cheeks, and even the end of his eyes were burning hot.It was too hot, he was not used to it, it was burning hot.

It must be because of the fever, Wen Xu thought.

The two of them were like this, one standing and the other sitting, with their hands stretched out together.No one let go, and no one spoke.It was just that they waited abruptly until the nurse made rounds at a fixed time before leaving quietly.

One sat on the bed, stretched his hand back under the quilt, and lowered his eyes to avoid the nurse's gaze

The other one stood by the window, stuffed his hands into his pockets, and twisted his fingers carefully, for fear of missing a trace of the residual body temperature.

Each has its own way, the only thing in common is the heartbeat of nearly the same frequency, and the eyes that subconsciously look away when they see each other.

Tacitly, the atmosphere is a bit subtle and lingering.

After the nurse helped Wen Xu change and took a bottle of medicine, Duan Chenyi coughed lightly and walked to Wen Xu's bedside, a little embarrassed.

He touched the tip of his ear unnaturally, and stretched out his hand towards Wen Xu cautiously.

"That...have I ever told you that I am very fussy?"

"You relied on me just now... I think I should rely on it back." Before speaking, Duan Chenyi subconsciously avoided Wen Xu's gaze, saying that he was guilty.

"It's us, can we hold each other again?"

Under Wen Xu's suspicious eyes, Duan Chenyi just stood there and thought about the 800 reasons why he wanted to hold hands with him, all of which were thrown into the sky.Even his usual eloquence and witty remarks can only be hemmed and hawed now.

Duan Chenyi's Adam's apple rolled slightly, and the fingers of his other hand trembled and curled up where Wen Xu couldn't see.

"This time I'm the one who took the initiative, okay?"

With that said, Duan Chenyi sent his hand to Wen Xu's side again.And just when Wen Xu hesitated for a moment and nodded lightly to agree, Duan Chenyi's hand had already entered the bed, and gently hooked Wen Xu's little finger on the edge of the bed.

Wen Xu was a little annoyed by his actions, and just wanted to take a step back.

And the second he had this idea, Duan Chenyi's hand came up a little domineeringly, making it impossible for Wen Xu to retreat.

Everything that happened next happened very naturally, and Duan Chenyi took advantage of Wen Xu's connivance to grab his palms, making the two of them intertwined.

On the other side, Duan Chenyi said to Wen Xu as if he had won the fruit of victory: "Xiao Xu, your hands are so small."

Just when Wen Xu was about to tell Duan Chenyi not to go too far, he felt his hand being grabbed and rubbed lightly by Duan Chenyi.

Duan Chenyi's voice was neither too loud nor too soft, and it just landed in his ears.

"Your hands...are so soft."

Wen Xu took a deep breath and avoided looking at Duan Chenyi.I just looked up to see if his potion was not half filled, so it hadn't reached the dose that can reduce the fever.

Otherwise, how could he feel the temperature on his body getting hotter and hotter.

The next day, Wen Xu woke up under the sunshine.

Because slept in a daze yesterday, forgot to thicken the bed curtain, and there was only a thin layer of gauze curtain.The sun shone through the gauze, hazy.

Wen Xu opened his eyes, and felt that the world was hazy.

He sat up straight with the railing propped up beside the bed, held his forehead in a daze for a while, and then remembered that he was sent to the hospital by Duan Chenyi because of a fever yesterday.

And when Wen Xu was thinking about where Duan Chenyi, who had been sitting next to him, had gone now, the door of the ward was pushed open from the outside.

Wen Xu followed the voice and looked over, saw Chen Chen holding an apple and a thermos in his hand at this time, and said good morning to himself with a smile.

Wen Xu hummed in a daze, as if he was responding to Chen Chen's greeting.

By the time he realized it, Chen Chen had already poured out the porridge in the thermos bucket, peeled the apples he brought in from outside, and with a smile asked Wen Xu to eat it while it was hot.

Wen Xu looked at the breakfast in front of him, picked up the spoon in a little bewilderment, and didn't eat it.He just turned around and asked Chen Chen, "Duan Chenyi sent me to the hospital yesterday, did you see anyone else?"

Hearing Wen Xu's question, the corners of Chen Chen's mouth, which were still slightly raised just now, froze for a second, and then quickly returned to his normal reply.

"Oh, you mean Duan Chenyi? He seemed to be called back by his father early in the morning because of a sudden emergency in his company. Then he specially asked me to take care of you earlier."

Wen Xu was still sitting on the bed, raised his head a little slowly to look at Chen Chen, and then withdrew his suspicious gaze.

"Okay." Wen Xu nodded lightly, the feeling of interlocking fingers with Duan Chenyi for nearly a night yesterday seems to be still there.

After curling his fingers slightly, he picked up the lid of the thermos bucket next to him and covered the bowl of porridge.

"Don't worry, I have to wash up first and then have breakfast."

After Wen Xu had finished his breakfast and confirmed with the doctor that his physical condition was fine, he sat quietly on the chair in the hospital and waited for Chen Chen to go through the discharge procedures for him.

When he was free, Wen Xu took out his mobile phone and saw the message Duan Chenyi had sent him early in the morning.

"I'm in a hurry, so I'm leaving first."

"I asked Chen Chen to take care of you. I just took your temperature and the fever has subsided. After you wake up, remember to ask the doctor to check again. If you still feel a little uncomfortable, it doesn't matter if you lie down for another day. The schoolI'll find a counselor to ask for leave for you."

"It's still a bit cold outside, remember to wear more clothes when you come out of the hospital, don't catch a cold."

Duan Chenyi also sent a lot of messages, but Wen Xu didn't continue to study after glancing at it and remembering it in his heart.

He just replied one by one.He put his eyes on the time when Duan Chenyi sent the message the first time.

Distributed at 5:39.

leaving so early?

Wen Xu put his phone away, and subconsciously opened the palm of the hand that had been interlocking with Duan Chenyi all night.

He knew that he had a shallow sleep, and there was very little time to sleep soundly at night, and he would wake up at the slightest movement from the outside world.But... Duan Chenyi didn't wake him up with such a loud noise when he pulled his hand out of his own.

Inexplicably, Wen Xu thought of how Duan Chenyi carefully pulled out his hand, and how he quietly left the ward.Thinking that that picture might appear, he felt a little sore in his heart.

When Lu Yuan was still in the dormitory, Wen Xu once mentioned to everyone that he was a light sleeper before going to bed, and hoped that everyone would be quieter in the early morning.

Lu Yuan was okay at the beginning, but in the later period, playing games or making phone calls in the dormitory in the early morning happened more than once.As for Zhou Yu, although it wasn't very noisy, he often flipped through books until midnight because he had to study.

Although Wen Xu euphemistically mentioned it a few times, Lu Yuan still went his own way, forcing Wen Xu to wear earplugs when sleeping at night.

So this has always been one of the reasons why Wen Xu wanted to move out.

But the only... Duan Chen has a different intention.

Although Wen Xu didn't pay much attention to him before, he suddenly discovered that the keyboard that Duan Chenyi brought to the dormitory, which would make a little crackling noise when he knocked on it, was replaced with a silent switch at some point.

At eleven o'clock in the evening, all of Duan Chenyi's movements would become lighter, so light that Wen Xu almost forgot the existence of this person.

Although it was only mentioned once casually, Duan Chenyi really kept it firmly in his heart and never said a word.

"What are you laughing about here?"

Chen Chen, who had just helped Wen Xu finish the discharge procedures, walked over from the side, stretched out his hand and dangled in front of Wen Xu's eyes, "I saw you happy here from a long distance, and what happened to you made you laugh so happily?"?”

"It's okay." Wen Xu shook his head, and put away the corners of his mouth that had just turned up before he knew it.

Looking at the palm of his hand and starting to laugh, it is really silly, Wen Xu thought.

He took the medicine he had just retrieved from Chen Chen's hand, and then explained with an excuse.

"I usually have no expression. After a long time, my face becomes paralyzed, so I want to train the muscles on my face."

After returning to the dormitory from the hospital, Wen Xu tidied up his seat a bit, then drank the medicine prescribed by the doctor with water.

He had few classes today, and because he had been lying on the hospital bed for a long time yesterday, he felt very relaxed now.

Wen Xu turned on his mobile phone, and Duan Chenyi hadn't sent a message for a long time.

Are you so busy?This thought flashed through Wen Xu's mind.

What the hell is Duan Chenyi busy with? He got back to work until he was leaving before six o'clock in the morning, and he hasn't responded to messages for five or six hours...

Obviously yesterday I let myself rely on him more.

Wen Xu shook his head, trying to clear his mind and stop thinking so much.

Then the next second, he felt the phone in his hand vibrate slightly, which was a signal that someone had sent him a message.

Wen Xu's originally depressed mood trembled for a while, and he looked down at his mobile phone screen with a little expectation.

There was no red dot in the chat box in Duan Chenyi's column.

"..."

Wen Xu pursed his lips slightly, and was about to turn off this annoying phone, when suddenly he saw a transfer record appearing in his WeChat chat box.

He suddenly felt that it wasn't so bad anymore.

Wen Xu narrowed his eyes, and focused his gaze on the little red dot that just appeared.

That was a message from Meng Tang.

"Hello Wen Xu, this is the manuscript fee for this magazine, please pay attention to check it."

Below is the red transfer record, up to four digits.

After seeing the numbers above clearly, Wen Xu's originally depressed mood was relieved, and his mood became bright instantly.

Wen Xu took the money, and then sent a "Thank you."

"You're welcome." Meng Tang replied quickly, "It's a happy cooperation, and I will look for you next time I have a chance."

After a few polite words with Meng Tang, Wen Xu silently deposited the money and the supplementary tuition fee given by Lin Qirui's mother into the card.

Receiving the manuscript fee was a very happy thing for Wen Xu. He wanted to find someone to share with, but after seeing Duan Chenyi's chat box that hadn't moved for a long time, his desire to share became slightly weaker..

Just like that, Wen Xu silently turned off his cell phone, and then took out a book and opened it to pass the time.

He read the past page by page, but his heart could not calm down.Although the fever has subsided, the energy from the fever is still lingering in Wen Xu's heart.

And... the feeling of Duan Chenyi's hands intertwined with his fingers under the quilt last night.

Do ordinary friends hold their fingers together for an evening?

Wen Xu hugged the book, unable to figure it out.

He has read a lot of literary works, and he also appreciates the love between men and women in literary works, whether implicit or straightforward.

However, Wen Xu knew very little about the relationship between men.

Although there are few, Wen Xu knows that ordinary friends will not develop to this point, nor should they.

But Wen Xu couldn't say which aspect was wrong.He just felt... that he seemed to be a little bit concerned about Duan Chenyi's existence.

He thought for a while, before he remembered that his former professional teacher had talked about a certain writer of modern and contemporary literature in class, and described the relationship between men in a certain article.

Wen Xu paused, and was about to take out his mobile phone to search for that article.In the next second, the dormitory door was pushed open.

Wen Xu, who was still obsessed with thinking about the world, was taken aback by this sudden movement.He looked towards the door of the dormitory in a little astonishment.

Then he saw Zhou Yu standing at the door panting.

Wen Xu got up from his seat, a little dazed."What's wrong?"

Zhou Yu glanced at Wen Xu, and after saying that you were there, he walked towards Duan Chenyi's table.

He just stood in front of Duan Chenyi's desk and rummaged for a while, until Wen Xu walked over suspiciously and asked, "Why did you rummage through his things?" Zhou Yu then stopped his work.action.

Zhou Yu took out a document from Duan Chenyi's desk, and shook it in front of Wen Xu.

"This is the information I arranged for Duan Chenyi to sort out when I asked him to form a team last time. It was supposed to be used today, but he was called to the counselor's office because he seemed to have committed something. Our team is in a hurry.So I ran to find it."

Hearing Zhou Yu's words, Wen Xu froze slightly.Just as he was trying to grasp the ins and outs of Zhou Yu's questioning of Duan Chenyi, before he could open his mouth, he heard the person on the opposite side speak directly to him.

"I don't know about Duan Chenyi either, don't look at me like that, if you want to know, you can ask him yourself..."

"I have something urgent to do, so let's go first."

As he said that, Zhou Yu hurriedly left the dormitory with the documents in his arms, leaving Wen Xu alone in front of Duan Chenyi's desk in a daze.

After reacting for a while, Wen Xu took out his mobile phone and saw the chat box that Duan Chenyi hadn't replied for a long time.After thinking for a while in a panic, he called Chen Chen.

As soon as the other end of the phone was connected, before Chen Chen could speak, Wen Xu asked bluntly: "Tell me clearly, what happened to Duan Chenyi? Didn't you say that he left because his family was busy with the company?"Is it...how did Zhou Yu tell me that he was called to the office?"

"Duan Chenyi hasn't come back yet, and he hasn't replied to the messages I sent."

Chen Chen was also confused by Wen Xu's series of questions. The two had known each other for so long, and it was the first time he heard Wen Xu say so many things in one breath.

He originally planned to speak to calm Wen Xu's emotions, "I know you are in a hurry, but don't be in a hurry..."

As a result, Chen Chen was told by Wen Xu in the next second: "He was called away at six o'clock in the morning, and he hasn't heard from him until now. How could I not be in a hurry?"

Chen Chen couldn't bear it anymore, he was afraid that Wen Xu would come to his dormitory to find someone later.So he honestly told all about Duan Chenyi.

Because there was a lot of noise about Wen Xu's rumors last time, almost everyone in Zhuda University who could receive the news, including the gatekeeper, could say a few words.As a result, the video of Duan Chenyi in the bar at that time was also very popular.

This rumor happened to reach the ears of the counselor of the School of Computer Science.

According to common sense, as long as there is no bad influence caused by fighting in the school, there should be no major incidents, and basically everything will be peaceful after the limelight passes.

But it's a pity, because Duan Chenyi's performance in the academy last year was too dazzling, and he ranked first in the final general test, and also won the first-class scholarship in the school, so he inevitably attracted the ill will of others.

So naturally, Duan Chenyi was reported by others.

He was reported to the counselor, saying that he had a fight in a bar, had a bad character and acted improperly, and Duan Chenyi was to be disqualified from the next scholarship selection.

And now, Duan Chenyi happened to be called to the office by the counselor to deal with this matter.

After Wen Xu understood the cause of the incident from Chen Chen, he didn't bother to care about his illness, so he grabbed a coat and prepared to run to the office of the School of Computer Science.

In the end, just as Wen Xu took half a step out of the dormitory door, he met Duan Chenyi face to face.

Wen Xu froze in place, "You..."

Duan Chenyi looked a little tired, with blue dark circles appearing indistinctly under his eyes.Although he was not very energetic, he still bent his eyes and smiled when he saw Wen Xu.

When he realized that Wen Xu was only wearing a thin layer of clothes and wanted to run outside, Duan Chenyi didn't say anything, just frowned slightly and took off his coat to cover him.

"Didn't I say it's cold outside? Don't you know how to wear more?"

It was clearly a questioning sentence pattern, but there was a bit of helpless connivance in the tone.

Because of Duan Chenyi's actions, Wen Xu was stunned for a while, and was about to ask him what he was doing today.In the next second, he felt himself being pushed and shoved by Duan Chenyi.

As soon as the dormitory door was closed, Wen Xu was pushed to the desk by Duan Chenyi.His body pressed down slightly, forcing Wen Xu to back up and sit on his desk.

The clattering sound of textbooks and stationery being knocked together enveloped the quiet dormitory, making Wen Xu a little flustered, and subconsciously put his palm on Duan Chenyi's chest to push him away.

In the next second, Duan Chenyi's muffled voice interrupted Wen Xu's movements.

"IM so tired."

As he said that, he leaned against Wen Xu's shoulder and rubbed it, "Let me hug you, I was called to deal with things early this morning and I haven't come back until now..."

Hearing what Duan Chenyi said, Wen Xu choked up subconsciously, and couldn't say anything serious.

After holding it in until the end, he uttered a sentence dryly.

"I've heard about you from Chen Chen."

Duan Chenyi was still calm, buried in Wen Xu's neck, hummed softly, motioning him to continue talking.

"Why didn't you tell me? If it wasn't for me, you wouldn't have had a conflict with someone in the bar... I am also responsible for this matter. Why did you go to deal with it alone without saying a word?"

"You clearly told me yesterday... let me rely on you more. But why did you leave me alone when the matter came to your head?"

Wen Xu bit his lower lip, the corners of his eyes were a little sore.

"This kind of thing is mutual. Obviously...you can also rely on me, and tell me when you encounter something. We can bear it together."

After Wen Xu finished speaking for a while, Duan Chenyi did not respond.It had been so long that Wen Xu wondered if Duan Chenyi had really fallen asleep lying on his shoulder.

He suddenly heard Duan Chenyi close to his ear and chuckled.

"Xiao Xu, were you feeling sorry for me just now?"

The author has something to say:
