by InterstellarSnakeChapter 56:You are quite conscientious in this regard
I opened my mouth, my mind is full of thoughts, for a moment everything is blocked in my throat, I do not know what to say first.
What I want to say seems to be impossible to say in a few words, and the current situation is really not suitable for a long conversation.
“Tell me where the medicine is and we’ll talk about the rest later.” Don’t open your eyes, in the end, I decided not to say anything and deal with the matter at hand first.
I could feel Shen Wunian looking at me, as if he wasn’t satisfied with my behavior of changing the subject, but in his current state, he really couldn’t do anything about it, so he had to reluctantly compromise.
Loosening my lapel, he stepped back a bit, “In the cabinet in the bathroom of my room.”
“Oh.” I was about to stand up when I noticed that his other hand was still gripping my wrist and wouldn’t let go.
I looked at the hand and my eyes went up to meet his, wordlessly signaling him to let go.
He unconsciously clenched his five fingers at first, a gesture he didn’t want to obey, but quickly responded by slowly releasing the force bit by bit, dragging his fingertips across the back of my hand and loosening his grip on me.
The back of my hand felt like it had been crawled over by a train of ants, it itched terribly, I quickly withdrew my hand and stood up from the floor, “You go to bed and lie down first, I …… I’ll find some medicine.” Said turned around and ran out of the room.
When I got out of the door, I didn’t immediately go to the next room, but leaned my back against one of the walls in the hallway, rubbed my hands, and took a deep, calming breath.
Yesterday it had been so dark that I couldn’t see Shen Wunian’s bedroom clearly, relying on a small electronic candle, but now that the morning light had been introduced, all the furniture and furnishings were clear.
Cluttered, was my first thought as I entered the door. All the furniture was randomly placed, a piece here and a piece there, like a small furniture warehouse. But when I took a closer look, the brown leather sofa, the transparent dining table and chairs, the iron bed …… were all very familiar, clearly the furniture from Qingyun’s previous apartment.
They are scattered over the modern style bedroom, odd, out of tune, abrupt.
As my fingertips brushed across the transparent acrylic dining table, my mind automatically floated back to the past days when I dined across from Shen Wunian, which was probably the happiest time I had experienced after my parents died.
Clenching my fists, I forced myself to stop thinking about it, grabbed the medical kit from the bathroom cabinet, and quickly left the bedroom to return next door.
Shen Wunian was quite obedient, and although he didn’t lie down, he obediently sat on the edge of the bed and waited for me.
“Do you want me to treat this wound?” I put the medical kit on the bed and opened it, found the antipyretic and gave it to him along with half a cup of water left over from yesterday’s drink at the bedside.
He was as stupid as he was burned, half a day before he took it, “Yes, or the infection will get worse.
After taking the medicine with the water, he casually put the glass of water aside.
“Are you really infected?” I immediately tensed up, “Then …… should I call an ambulance to send you back to the hospital, huh?”
“I can handle it myself.” He rummaged through the medical kit for a while and shakily pulled out a bottle of iodine, but he didn’t even have the strength to unscrew it.
I couldn’t look away, grabbed it from him and unscrewed the cap, furrowing my eyebrows, “How can you treat yourself when you’re like this, don’t you want to die?”
“Well, don’t.” He locked eyes with me and said without half a second’s hesitation, almost as if it was some kind of provocation.
“You …….”
He offered me his hand, asking for the iodine back, and I stared at his ever-twitching palm and slapped it away, sitting on the edge of the bed and saying without a word, “Tell me what to do, and I’ll take care of it for you. “
He looked at the slapped hand and suddenly smiled, “Our little Ai has become bold.
I was stunned to hear “little Ai” again, that long forgotten name, and panicked, lowering my eyes to avoid looking at him: “Do you want him?”
“Yes.” He trailed off and said twice in a row, “Of course I do.”
Originally, I thought that wound care would be a simple operation of disinfecting the area around his wound and applying a new piece of gauze, but his instructions, one after another, were extremely different from what I thought.
The torn bags, blood-stained gauze, and used cotton swabs were scattered on the floor beside the bed, and Shen Wunian was leaning on the bed, his eyes slightly closed, and his face didn’t show the slightest bit of pain. On the other hand, even with medical gloves on my hands, I could feel my palms sweating furiously.
With a pair of tweezers, I slowly insert a small ball of yellow iodine imitation gauze into the wound on Shen Wunian’s chest, and every time I insert a little bit, I have to look up to see his reaction. This operation is scary to look at, but he is like completely feel no pain like, expression calm, I can not help but produce a trace of doubt: “You …… do not hurt?”
He did not open his eyes, did not answer and asked, “Have you ever been burned?”
I thought for a moment and said, “When I was naughty as a child, I was scalded by the heat of a steamed bun.
My finger was scalded, and the pain was so great that I immediately wailed and cried, and was dragged under the faucet by my mother’s anxious tugging of her arm, and washed with cool water for half a day before I was well again.
“The pain of Redvein Syndrome, like a burn that never heals, is much more painful than that.” Shen Wunian said.
More painful than this, how painful would it be?
Looking at the wounds under my hands that had already been cleaned of pus and the necrotic tissue plucked out, I had the illusion that my own chest was hurting.
“Have you been ill for many years?” I continued to ask.
He’s been watching me since high school, so that’s three years.
“Five years.”
Tweezers pauses slightly. That’s why he said he lived in purgatory for the five years I was clueless.
“Why didn’t you ask me for access to bodily fluids through Control?”
If I’d known five years ago that there was someone connected to me by a red thread who needed my bodily fluids to slow the pain, even if I had to have my blood drawn once a week, I think I would have given it.
“Tick” sound, the wall of the air conditioning panel at this time suddenly issued a soft sound, the air vents did not take long to emerge gusts of cool air, the caller.
“Unwrap the waterproof bandage and stick it on my wound.” At the same time, Shen Wunian gave one last instruction.
I followed the instructions and unwrapped a packet of waterproof bandages and pressed them tightly against the four sides of his wound, and after the treatment, he wearily opened his eyes and extended his hand to me.
“I can’t let others know that I have a disease, and ……” he stroked my cheek and said, “you were just a child then, thin as if you were malnourished, where can I expect you to give me body fluids? “
His fingertips were a little damp and sweaty, and even though he didn’t feel the pain himself, it seemed his body was giving the most visceral response.
I raised my finger and lowered it again, muttering in a low voice, “You are quite conscientious in this regard.
After treating the wound, it did not take long for Shen Wunian to fall asleep from exhaustion. I was afraid that he would fall asleep and go into shock, so I dragged a single sofa to the side of the bed and stood by.
After a whole night of walking up and down the mountain, my body has long been tired to death, according to the reason I have to hold on in order not to fall asleep, but watching Shen Wunian’s sleeping face, his mind can not help but echo back his sentence “I love you”, simply more refreshing than coffee, do not feel sleepy at all.
Deception and hurt, trust and betrayal, hate and love …… red threads tightly entangled all things, woven into an inescapable, inseparable web. Whether it’s Liang Weiren and Yu Luo, or Shen Wunian and me, they are all just the prey of this web.
Liang Weiren and Yu Luo could not break free, and they both died in the net. Shen Wunian and I are now half inside and half outside the net, and the situation is still unclear.
Supporting my face, I let out a long sigh.
How can I finally break free from the red thread and end this life without any regrets?
It’s so hard. Harder than a lesson in microcosmic writing.
It was a question a little too complex and deep for twenty-year-old me.
And …… won’t he and Philia be escorted back to their homeland to be imprisoned for a hundred years? Now talk to me about what love or not ah, deal with the trial on the body is the most important, right?
I looked at Shen Wunian like this for a whole morning, went down to cook some porridge at noon, finished eating myself, and took a bowl up to keep him awake to feed him.
The effect of the medicine seems to have worked, his heat receded a lot, and the person …… is also quite normal.
“You didn’t rest?” He asked, watching my face.
“What if you suddenly die when I rest?” I put the spoon to his lips and said, “I don’t want anyone else to die before me.
He didn’t say another word, just stared at me thoughtfully.
After feeding him, I put the bowl aside and told him the words I had been thinking back and forth all morning, “Honestly, I don’t know if I want to believe you or not, and I don’t know how to treat you, I can’t find the answer, so I’ve switched my mind …… to solving the specific problem before I think of anything else. “
Said to the first half of the sentence, his expression is not fluctuation, not surprised, but to the second half of the sentence, his eyes gradually rise wipe incomprehension.
“Solve the main contradiction and I might be able to find out.” I broke my fingers and raised one question after another, “First, return the promissory notes to me, and later are not allowed to take this matter to threaten me; second, I want to go back to Jiang City, you can no longer tie me off me; third …… do you really want to sit in prison for a hundred years?”
Just like the butterfly has to go through the spring to get into the summer, the butterfly has to break the cocoon, take the right steps to get to the right end. Being stuck in the net, the most urgent thing is to untie the knot first.
Shen Wunian eyes fell on my face, looked at me for a long time before opening his lips: “The first ……,” he pressed down my remaining two fingers, only the index finger, “IOUs in my bedroom safe, where there are still some of your things that you can get for yourself.
He gave me the combination and told me to get comfortable.
I was afraid I would forget it and ran as fast as I could with the password in my head. I opened his closet to take a look, inside, in addition to his own clothes, there were surprisingly some clothes that I had left in the apartment before and had not taken with me.
I thought he had lost them, but I didn’t know he had moved here.
After entering the password and opening the safe door, I found not only the promissory notes, but also my cell phone and the backpack that Liang Weiren was carrying when he grabbed me.
Cell phone even if, backpack can be recovered is I never thought, walk back to the next bedroom, I still immersed in the joy of lost and found.
What I didn’t expect was that the phone was actually charged.
“These days, I will disguise myself as you to answer those friends of yours, no one is suspicious at the moment.” When I sat back on the sofa, Shen Wunian took the initiative to explain.
“Wow, you really …… ,” I forcefully suppressed the urge to scold him and extended four fingers, “Fourth, you will do less of this kind of illegal and criminal things in the future.”
He did not deny it, pressed down my dick and ring fingers, and then the first question, “Second, I will not tie you up and lock you up again, you are free to go, except …… I can’t stop you like this, can I?” With that, he moved his left foot, and the chains in the air followed with a slight shake.
I cleared my throat and said, “The keys are downstairs, I’ll put them on the table for you when I leave later.”
He didn’t seem to care about being able to unlock the chains, he lifted my ring finger and added, “Third, who says I’m going to prison for a hundred years?”
My eyes were wandering, my heart was weak.
Shen Wunian let out a cold laugh and guessed: “Philia.
“She accidentally blurted out …….”
“She lied to you. It’s true that we will be extradited to our home country and go through a long trial, but everything is under my control, it shouldn’t be necessary to sit in prison for a hundred years.”
I frowned, not understanding, “Then why did she lie to me?”
“I guess because your reaction was weird.” He pinched my end finger, the back of his hand stroking it in a rather ambiguous way from bottom to top, supporting it, “Fourth, I’m not doing it willingly.”
Eyelashes trembling slightly, I backed away a little, leaving his touch, and extended my thumb, “And fifth, I just thought of …… apologizing.”
Shen Wunian had no objection at all to my almost commanding tone, caught up, held my fingertips, dropped his eyes, and placed them on his own lips, kissing them gently.
“I’m sorry.” He was sickly and haggard, as if he were a clawless, completely tamed beast, as gentle as he could be.
“I was wrong.” He pressed his face against the back of my hand, his expression, his movements, even the scorching breath that puffed against his skin, as if begging for my mercy.
【The writer has something to say:
I set is Shen Wunian pectoral muscle is thick enough did not puncture the chest wall injury to the internal organs, the infection is pure muscle tissue infection, so the wound only need to remove the line clearing plug gauze drainage, do not have to worry about pneumothorax or anything …… I know that their own operation is very easy to aggravate the infection, but the plot needs to be, fooling around a little, three yuan can not explain this.】
