Chapter 117: One Kiss and I'll Let You Go Back
Shen Jun's eyes were red, and he couldn't tell why he felt so uncomfortable for a moment, but Xie Xubai's behavior just now really scared him.
Xie Xubai sighed softly, leaned forward helplessly, opened his arms and gently embraced Shen Jun in his arms.
"I'm sorry," Xie Xubai said in a serious tone. Shen Jun listened and felt like something was blocking his heart. He choked and didn't know what to say.
The hand on his back patted Shen Jun's thin back from time to time to soothe him.
It took a long time, so long that Xie Xubai's arms began to feel numb, before Shen Jun's breathing in his arms finally calmed down and became gentle.
"Shen Jun?" Xie Xubai called softly. The person in his arms mumbled a few words but did not wake up. Xie Xubai confirmed that Shen Jun was asleep before he gently put him on the bed and covered him with the quilt.
The door of the room opened and closed, and only Shen Jun was left on the bed.
In the living room, Xie Xubai walked slowly to the sofa and sat down. His figure was hidden in the dark, making it difficult to see his emotions. He sat on the sofa in silence for a long while before silently taking out his mobile phone.
He swiped his finger across the screen a few times and made a phone call.
The phone rang a few times before being picked up. The person on the other end was obviously woken up by the call, and his voice was a little hoarse.
"What are you doing in the middle of the night, Xie Xubai?" Yang Zhiheng's tone was a little irritable, but when he received Xie Xubai's call, he immediately got up and turned on the light in the room, woke up and listened carefully.
After all, it must not be a trivial matter for his childhood friend to call him in the middle of the night.
"Help me...check someone." Xie Xubai said in a deep voice.
"Ah? I help you check? What kind of person can't you, Master Xie, find out? Why do you need me to help you?"
"It's not convenient, so I ask you for help," Xie Xubai said as he glanced casually at the bag of snacks on the table that he bought for Shen Jun.
"Who would make things inconvenient for you, Young Master Xie..." Yang Zhiheng said, and suddenly a terrible thought popped up in his mind, "Could it be..."
"Yes, that's right, so I asked you to help me check it." Xie Xubai looked at the bag of snacks, his tone was flat, but Yang Zhiheng on the other side was almost frightened to roll off the bed, and before he could ask any more questions, Xie Xubai hung up the phone.
Immediately afterwards, a name was sent to Yang Zhiheng's mobile phone. Yang Zhiheng, who had just climbed out of bed, almost lost his legs and fell off the bed again when he saw the two words "Shen Jun" on the screen.
Shen Jun...how could it be him!
The next morning, when Shen Jun woke up, it was just dawn and the bed next to him was already cold. He didn't know whether he had gotten up early or hadn't slept at all.
Shen Jun supported his slightly aching head and slowly stood up. He felt dizzy for a moment before he stood firm again.
There was a noise outside the room. Shen Jun opened the door and went out, and saw Xie Xubai taking things out of the thermos and putting them on the table. He didn't look up when he heard Shen Jun coming out. He just put the things away and then pulled a stool and sat down opposite Shen Jun.
"Why are you standing there? Go wash up and then come to eat." Xie Xubai then looked at Shen Jun without any fluctuation in his eyes.
"Oh..." Shen Jun responded and turned to go into the bathroom. Although the house was new, there were quite a few daily necessities. A brand new set of toiletries was placed next to Xie Xubai's toiletries without being unpacked.
Maybe they were bought together, the two sets look a bit like a couple's item when put together.
When Shen Jun came out after washing up, the things on the table were still untouched. It was obvious that Xie Xubai was waiting for him to eat together.
Shen Jun walked over to Xie Xubai, pulled a stool and sat down. He had a traditional Chinese breakfast of steamed buns, milk and a few peeled boiled eggs.
Shen Jun glanced at the eggshell in front of Xie Xubai, and his eyes fell on the face of the person next to him. He didn't know if it was because he didn't sleep all night, but there was a faint dark blue under Xie Xubai's eyes, but he was still energetic.
An egg fell into Shen Jun's bowl, the white and tender egg white was smooth and intact. Shen Jun reached out to take the egg and stuffed it into his mouth. After chewing it for a few times, he found that the yolk was too dry and it was difficult to swallow.
But Shen Jun was too embarrassed to say anything. He just puffed up his cheeks and chewed slowly, trying to break the egg into small pieces and swallow them.
"Do you want to choke yourself to death?" Xie Xubai said, handing hot milk to Shen Jun.
Shen Jun looked at Xie Xubai with gratitude, then quickly took a sip and swallowed the egg yolk.
"You insist on eating it even though you don't like it. Do you like to make things difficult for yourself?" Xie Xubai picked up a steaming bun and put it in Shen Jun's bowl.
Shen Jun is such a strange person, Xie Xubai thought. He obviously doesn't like to eat, but as long as someone gives it to him and he won't die, he will force himself to eat it.
When did Xie Xubai know this? Maybe it was because he saw him frowning as he ate the chicken drumstick Zhao Peng gave him in the dormitory. Or maybe it was because he accidentally saw him picking out the yolks of boiled or fried eggs when he was eating behind his back, but he could bear to eat them in front of him.
Why is this happening? Xie Xubai couldn't understand.
He seemed to be accustomed to disguising himself in front of others, like a timid quail who would bury his head in the soil to avoid being seen at the slightest sign of trouble.
For example, now, Xie Xubai just said something to him, and he lowered his head as if he wanted to stick it under the table.
"If you don't straighten your head, I'll come over and feed you." Xie Xubai took a bite of the juicy, thin-skinned and big-filled bun and threatened in a low voice.
When Shen Jun heard this, he straightened his head and started to deal with the bun in front of him seriously. The bun was filled with beef and the skin was very thin. When he bit it, juice would flow out from the broken part.
Shen Jun finished one in two bites, and then the other one fell into his own bowl. The two of them finished the meal in this way, one eating and the other feeding.
"Are these...all made by your chef?" Shen Jun asked curiously after wiping his mouth.
Xie Xubai glanced at Shen Jun and nodded silently, "Yes, my parents like this chef very much. He has worked in my family for more than ten years."
"Oh...Is that so? The uncle and aunt have a good eye for selecting people. This bun is the best I've ever eaten." Shen Jun looked at the last bun left on the table with some regret.
It’s a pity that I can’t finish it, otherwise I would never waste such delicious buns.
Shen Jun was staring at the bun, hesitating whether to just eat it. However, Xie Xubai was sitting beside him with a sullen face, scanning Shen Jun's face with a pair of eyes, with a dark look in his eyes.
After breakfast, a doctor came and looked at Shen Jun’s injuries and said that he would be fine after changing the medicine a few times.
Originally, Shen Jun's injuries were not serious. He only had his head hit on the ground and a broken skin. There was also a scrape on his back. It looked a bit hideous, but fortunately, they were only superficial injuries and nothing serious.
The only serious injury was a bone fracture on my chest caused by a rock, but it didn't affect my normal activities, it just hurt a bit.
It just so happened that Shen Jun was someone who couldn't bear pain, so he fainted.
The doctor changed the medicine on his chest and gave some instructions. Xie Xubai wrote them down one by one before sending the doctor away.
The cell phone lit up, Shen Jun turned around and saw that it was a notification from the class to change the classroom.
When Shen Jun saw the word "class", he suddenly remembered that he had been lying in the hospital for a long time and didn't know how much class he had missed.
If he fell behind too much, his scholarship this year would probably be lost. In fact, Shen Jun's grades that year were good enough for him to go to a better school closer to home.
However, I heard that University A offers a lot of scholarships every year, and there are also special funding awards established by caring people. Therefore, after much hesitation, Shen Jun finally decided to come to University A.
During his freshman year, Shen Jun basically took all the scholarships and financial aid he could get in his original major. It was tiring, but the money was enough to support Shen Jun's living expenses for the entire year.
There was even some money to spare, so even though he changed his major, Shen Jun still wanted to strive for a scholarship, but he really had no time to go to school during these days of illness.
Therefore, when Xie Xubai just turned back, he saw Shen Jun sitting on the sofa with a serious face, as if he had something important to tell him.
"I want... to go back to school, Xie Xubai," Shen Jun said seriously.
"No," Xie Xubai refused without thinking.
The rest of Shen Jun's words were stuck in his throat by this sentence. After hesitating for a while, Shen Jun decided to fight for it, but just as he was about to open his mouth, he heard Xie Xubai relax.
"Unless...if you kiss me, I'll let you go back."
